Is there something I’m resisting at work today? An initiative I don’t like, a technology that doesn’t make sense to me, anything that feels pointless or counterproductive?

Before recovery, I probably worked against these things in any way I could. But today I know that I can’t recover without honesty (and doing my own thing on the sly is not particularly honest), and that I don’t always know what’s best for everyone.

Today, if there’s something I’m asked to do that I don’t like doing, I’ll use the slogan “Think” before I react with resistance. I’ll ask my Higher Power for help, and then ask myself some questions. Does the new process help someone else–does it contribute to our common welfare? Is it just annoying, or does it require me to abandon my values? I don’t have to have all the answers today. But I will strive to respond thoughtfully rather than react reflexively.
