Recovery offers us the chance to break free from self-imposed limitations. Today's meditation encourages us to examine and reexamine our old ideas and discard those that inhibit our growth. We reflect on the process of stretching our boundaries and embracing new experiences.
We don't have to settle for the limitations of the past. We can examine and reexamine our old ideas. Most of us come to the program with a multitude of self-imposed limitations that prevent us from realizing our full potential, limitations that impede our attempts to find the values that lie at the core of our being. We place limitations on our ability to be true to ourselves, limitations on our ability to function at work, limitations on the risks we're willing to take—the list seems endless. If our parents or teachers told us we would never succeed, and we believed them, chances are we didn't achieve much. If our socialization taught us not to stand up for ourselves, we didn't, even if everything inside us was screaming to do so.
In Narcotics Anonymous, we are given a process by which we can recognize these false limitations for what they are. Through our Fourth Step, we'll discover that we don't want to keep all the rules we've been taught. We don't have to be the lifelong victims of past experiences. We are free to discard the ideas that inhibit our growth. We are capable of stretching our boundaries to encompass new ideas and new experiences. We are free to laugh, to cry, and, above all, to enjoy our recovery.
Just for today: I will let go of my self-imposed limitations and open my mind to new ideas. Join us as we discuss the freedom that comes from letting go of past limitations and opening our minds to new possibilities. Embrace the potential for growth and transformation in your recovery journey. 🌱🌟
