ACOA Promises
ACOA Promises
We will discover our real identities by loving and accepting ourselves. Our self-esteem will increase as we give ourselves approval on a daily basis. Fear of authority figures and the need to "people-please" will leave us. Our ability to share intimacy will grow inside us. As we face our abandonment issues, we will be attracted by strengths and become more tolerant of weaknesses. We will enjoy feeling stable, peaceful, and financially secure. We will learn how to play and have fun in our lives. We will chose to love people who can love and be responsible for themselves. Healthy boundaries and limits will become easier for us to set. Fears of failures and success will leave us, as we intuitively make healthier choices. With help from our ACA support group, we will slowly release our dysfunctional behaviors. Gradually, with our Higher Power's help, we learn to expect the best and get it.
