Commitment is the key to addiction recovery.  You can’t just “give recovery a try”.  It must be something that you pour your heart and soul into doing.  Your commitment must be strong and true.  Sometimes it takes going into rehab to get the help with the commitment that you need.  The work that goes into recovery is hard work and it is serious work.

Most failure happens because people do not fully commit themselves to their ideas and follow through.  When you consider taking a risk, ask yourself if you are prepared to go 100% of the way to see the idea to completion. It does not mean that the idea has to take over your life.  It just means that if you really want to succeed, you cannot be tentative or hesitant.

The Great Northern Geese travel thousands of miles in perfect formation, and therein lies the secret.  As each of the great birds moves its wings, it creates a steady uplift for the bird behind it.  Formation flying is 70% more efficient than flying alone.  You will rise by lifting others.  Likewise, they will rise by lifting you.

People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they’re going quicker and easier because they’re traveling on the strength of one another.
