“Look for something positive in each day, even if some days you have to look a little harder.”

Staying positive no matter what is often what separates those who are successful in recovery and those who aren’t. Some days it is difficult to see the positives. But if all we are left with are negatives, then it brings us closer to using than it does keeping us sober. Today, I will search for the positives. It may be as simple as finding gratitude for being alive or being sober as these things are not given. The more positive I can be about my recovery, the more likely it is that I will find a way to get through today and have room for more positives tomorrow.
