In Recovery, and especially at meetings, we here slogans and sayings that help us on our journey to stay clean and sober.  When in doubt, or if you are feeling down while in your recovery, just focus on some of these important slogans, and you will overcome the difficulties ahead. These recovery slogans have a lot of meaning behind them, and they've been a part of the 12 Step Fellowship for many years.  These are just one of the tools that we use to gain strength and confidence for the path ahead. It is my hope that you can benefit from these slogans in your recovery as well. Enjoy.

First Things First

Live and Let Live

Let go and let God

Time takes time

One day at a time

Cultivate an attitude of gratitude

Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less

Live life on life's terms

You can't think your way into a new way of living...you have to live your way into a new way of thinking

GOD = Good Orderly Direction

HALT = don't get to Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired

Your worth should never depend on another persons opinion

HOW it works = Honesty, Open mindedness, and Willingness

SLIP = Sobriety Lost Its Priority

Don't pick up, ask for help, call your Sponsor, and go to meetings

It's a simple program for complicated people

Keep coming back, it works if you work it

Learn to listen and listen to learn

Many meetings, many chances; few meetings, few chances; no meetings, no chances

Meeting makers make it

People who don't go to meetings don't hear about what happens to people who don't go to meetings

To keep what you have, you have to give it away

How does it work? It works just fine

If you don't want to slip, stay away from slippery places

If you do what you always did, you'll get what you always got

If you sit in the barber's chair long enough, you'll eventually get a haircut

Most things can be preserved in alcohol; dignity, however, is not one of them

Progress, not perfection

think......think.......think

Keep it simple

This too shall pass

Stick with the winners

H O P E = Happy Our Program Exists

Recovery is a journey ...not a destination

To thine own self be true

Turn it over

Nothing is so bad, a drink won't make it worse

Willingness is the key

Keep the plug in the jug

Do it sober

Hugs not Drugs

Just for Today

Pass it on

Don't quit before the miracle happens

Time takes time

Use the 24-hour plan

When all else fails, follow directions

Change is a process, not an event

Call your Sponsor before, not after, you take the first drink

I was sick and tired of being sick and tired

It's the first drink that gets you drunk

Take what you can use and leave the rest

Help is only a phone call away

One drink is too many and a thousand not enough

Keep coming back

Easy does it

Stick with the winners - Win with the stickers

Serenity is not freedom from the storm but peace amid the storm

Principles before personalities

Seven days without a meeting makes one weak

Slogans are wisdom written in shorthand

If it looks like a Duck and it Quacks like a Duck it's probably a Duck

One of the best parts of recovery is getting your feelings back. The worst part is getting your feelings back.

A GRATEFUL Alcoholic won't drink

Give time...time

1. FEAR Face Everything And Recover
1a. FEAR False Evidence Appearing Real

Take the cotton out of your ears and stick it in your mouth

Fake it until you make it
