Just For Today – July 20: Step One

“We admitted that we were powerless over our addiction, that our lives had become unmanageable.”
—Step One

The Strength in “We”

The First Step begins with “we,” emphasizing the strength gained from making a verbal admission of powerlessness. Joining meetings and making this admission connects us to a collective “we” that allows us to recover together.

Seeking a Better Way

By admitting our powerlessness over addiction, we begin searching for a better way to live, supported by the experience of fellow recovering addicts.

Just for today: I will start the day with an admission of my powerlessness over addiction. I will remind myself that the First Step starts with “we” and know that I never have to be alone with my disease again.
