Justin's Mistake - Meeting 39

from RECO12 · host Justin B

My name is Justin and I am an addict AND I am imperfect.  And thanks to my God, the Steps, and the fellowship of other addicts, I am sober, one day at a time, since June 19, 2015, and for that, I am beyond grateful. Today's speaker meeting with Michael Brody-Waite was FANTASTIC!  His topic was "Benefits of Living Life Like a Drug Addict".  All who attended were nourished and came away with a little livelier step.  As soon as I ended the meeting my heart sank...  I realized that I never hit record and that the meeting with Michael was lost to the moment.  I got the opportunity to practice the lessons shared by Michael right away.  Those lessons/principles were as follows:1. Practice absolute authenticity2. Surrender the outcome3. Do the uncomfortable workWith my error, I got to do these things right away.  I hope that we will be able to have another time when Michael can join us and record that discussion as it was really fantastic.  For those not in attendance, I am going to include some links to some of Michael's stuff so you can get to know him a little and support him if you choose.  Ted Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUnRKf2CemAWebsite: https://michaelbrodywaite.com/Book: https://greatleaderbook.com/Thank you for your patience with my imperfection.  Intro music is “Standing Still” by Cory Ellsworth and Randy Kartchner, performed by Mike Eldred and Elizabeth Wolfe.  This song, and/or the entire soundtrack for the future Broadway musical, “Crosses:  A Musical of Hope”, can be purchased here:  https://music.apple.com/us/album/crosses-musical-hope-by-cory/528476262  This song is used with the  permission of Cory Ellsworth.  Reco12 is a self-supporting service and we appreciate your help in keeping it that way.  We gratefully accept contributions to help cover the costs of the Zoom platform, podcast platform, web hosting, and administrative costs.  To contribute, you can go to https://www.reco12.com/support  or you can click the link to PayPal (https://www.paypal.me/reco12)  in the chat of the live meeting.  When you contribute, please specify the meeting number.  This is meeting number 39.  Support the showPrivate Facebook GroupInstagram PageBecome a Reco12 Spearhead (Monthly Supporter)PatreonPayPalVenmo: @Reco-TwelveYouTube ChannelReco12 WebsiteEmail:  [email protected] to join WhatsApp GroupReco12 Shares PodcastReco12 Shares Record a Share LinkReco12 Noodle It Out with Nikki M PodcastReco12 Big Book Roundtable Podcast
