Be somebody's early days

Phase: A Life Worth Keeping
Today's talk · preview

Day 78. Let's talk about giving back.

On Day 40, you planned an hour of help. On Day 48, you offered to be someone's text at night. You found out something a lot of people find out. Helping someone else is one of the strongest things you can do for your own sobriety.

Here's why. When you help someone in their early days, you remember your own. You remember the shaky first nights. The cravings. The fear. And you remember how far you've come. It keeps you honest, and it keeps you humble.
