OCTOBER 13 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "I need not be discouraged"
Update: 2025-10-13
Description
My progress in recovery depends in large measure on my attitude, and my attitude is up to me. It's the way I decide to look at things. Nobody can force an attitude on me. For me, a good attitude is a point of view unclouded by self-pity and resentments. There will be stumbling blocks in my path, without a doubt. But the Gamblers Anonymous Program has taught me that stumbling blocks can be turned into stepping stones for growth.
Do I believe, as Tennyson put it, "that men may rise on stepping stones of their dead selves to higher things"?
Today I Pray … May God help me cultivate a healthy attitude toward myself, the Gamblers Anonymous Program, and other people. God, keep me from losing my spiritual stabilizers, which keep me level in purpose and outlook. Let me ignore self pity, discouragement, and my tendency to overdramatize. Let no dead-weight burden throw me out of balance.
Today I Will Remember … With God on my side, I need not be discouraged.
