:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~: When thinking won't cure fear, action will. W. Clement Stone :~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~: When I first came into the program, I was told that I couldn't think my way into positive actions, but I could act my way into positive thinking. I learned that this was a simple program of action; that if I wanted what you had, I had to do what you did. None of these clichés made any sense to me; I would have to think these over. The nerve of these people telling me that they would do my thinking for me, that all I had to do was follow directions! They prodded and badgered me into working the Steps out of real love and knowledge of truth. I realize now that my actions demonstrated to God my desire to change, and He gave me the courage to try living another way. Most importantly, though, He gave me you. ONE DAY AT A TIME ... Am I going to "keep on the firing line" or rest on my laurels? :~*~:. .:~*~:.
