W is for Work. The program works if you work it. More importantly, it works when you work for the program.

Z is for Zero. When my scorecard read Zero, I had to reach out and ask for help. When I look at "O" today, I am in the state of what Zen calls "No Mind' and open to new direction.

D is for Doubt. If you doubt your Higher Power, you are doubting yourself. My sponsor told me this many years ago, and when I find myself in a place of doubt, I try to double up on my program.

F is for Faith. Faith that things shall unfold as they should be, not as I would have them be.
Faith that God answers prayer, sometime He says, "No!"

J is for JUST for today...a great solgan. It keeps me hanging in there when I am not sure I can put one foot in front of the other. It reminds me I can do anythig for an hour..even if I woudl not wish to do it the rest of my life. It is similar to the ODAT slogan that keeps me diong the next best thing I need to do.
