A is for ASSERTIVENESS,. I'm glad today I can be assertive without being bossy. I can stand up for myself but in a way that is healthy and respectful of others.

C is for....... Carrying the message to others.
Working your program and letting others see it work in action, sponsoring, doing service work, taking on commitments. There are just as many ways to carry the message, as there are people in the program.[/color]

N is for ..... needs.
One of the greatest gifts of recovery, for me, has been getting my needs met. Learning that I am responsible for my own happiness. That I don't have to depend on someone else. That I am a person in my own right with my own hopes and dreams and desires. [/size]
