Keep It Simple: The slogan, “Keep It Simple” helps to remind us that simple solutions are often the most effective ones. This slogan can help us look at what really is happening rather than what we imagine may happen, and to take a reasonable, step by step approach rather than act out of fear or panic.
The key to life and happiness is to just keep it simple! Not in just one or two ways in my life, but in every aspect possible. This is a process that may take getting some used to, but can really make a difference. I am finding that little things like just getting my house and personal business organized help me stay a lot less aggravated and stress free. I also learned to quit complicating issues that come up, turning an incident into a crisis is not a good route to take if your looking for serenity. I am learning to quit worrying so much and giving it to God instead of trying to fix my broken loved ones....
All of the slogans of Al-anon are wonderful tools for our recovery, but, Keep it Simple, really can make a big difference in your day to day living.
Peace on the journey, SunnyGirl

Not an easy one for me. As they say here in the rooms, a simple program for complicated people. I don't make a mountain out of a mole hill like I use to and life is much simpliar now as have learned to detach, set boundaries and practice self care. My life was complicated because I allowed other people to affect my thinking and my actions. I need to be complete and whole and then help others. I have nothing to give if I am running around on empty.

Keep it simple. Don't use, go to meetings, get a sponsor, and work the steps so you can apply them to your daily life.
