A Few AA Slogans
Permalink  
 


Hi all,

I just came across some of these AA slogans. I think that some of them are great and wanted to share them.

I am getting so much out of being here on MIP that I wanted to try and put back in a little of all that I am taking from it. Thank you everyone.

Take care,

Carol

**************************

No matter how far off the path we've stumbled, we're no more than 12 steps away from the solution!

Thoughts are not things and feelings are not facts; they only have the power we give them.

Listen to the message ... not the messenger

Feel, Deal and the Heal (Feel it, Deal with it and then Heal from it)

Hope is knowing the good in us will overcome the bad.

Don't give up five minutes before the miracle

Serenity comes when I stop expecting and start accepting.

Today is the tomorrow that I worried about yesterday.

It’s hard to be hateful when you’re being grateful.

Fear is not a shortcoming- it’s an emotion. Our reaction to it can be the shortcoming.

When you feel left out, reach out.

Glance at the past, but don’t stare at it.

You can’t change yesterday, but you can ruin today by worrying about tomorrow.

Wherever you go- there you are.

To live or just exist- the choice is yours.

Focus on the program-not the problem.

One needn’t make a crisis out of an incident.

When you’re flat on your back, there’s no way to look but up.

No is a complete sentence.

It helps to learn the difference between being responsible to others and being responsible for others.

Ulcers are what you get from mountain climbing on mole hills.

The way to get anywhere is to start from where you are.

If you want serenity, put your Higher Power between you & your problem.

Expectations are premeditated resentments.

Hi all,

Thanks so much for that. Some of the slogans really do 'stick' with me and it's good for me to be reminded of the wisdom behind them.

Have a super day,

Carol
