October 28 Attitudes

"We can also use the steps to improve our attitudes."
Basic Text, p.53

Ever have a day when everything seems to be working against
you? Do you go through periods when you are so busy taking
people's inventories you can barely stand yourself? What about
when you find yourself snapping at your co-worker or loved one
for no reason? When we find ourselves in this bleak frame of
mind, we need to take action.

At any point in the day, we can set aside a few moments and
take a "spot inventory:' We examine how we are reacting to
outside situations and other people. When we do, we may find
that we are suffering from a plain old "bad attitude:' A negative
outlook can hurt our relationship with our Higher Power and the
people in our lives. When we are honest with ourselves, we
frequently find that the problem lies with us and our attitude.

We have no control over the challenges life gives us. What
we can control is how we react to those challenges. At any point
in time, we can change our attitude. The only thing that really
changes in Narcotics Anonymous is us. The Twelve Steps give
use the tools to move out of the problem and into the solution.

Just for today: Throughout the day, I will check my attitude. I will
apply the steps to improve it.
