GHOD Spring 2019 Assignment

GET HONEST OR DIE SPONSORSHIP CORE GROUP MIDWEST MEETING – SPRING 2019

The Human mind, in its desire to know, understand, and control everything, mistakes its opinions and viewpoints for the Truth. It says, this is how it is, period. You have to be larger than thought to realize that however you interpret ‘your life’ or someone else’s life or behavior; however, you judge any situation, it is no more than a viewpoint, one of many possible perspectives.

The D Disease (Dishonesty, Distraction, Deception, Distortion, and Disillusion) with these the Disease is well on its way to overcome our recovery, and once these are entrenched in our spirit, you are in the fight of your life, for your life. They are called HABITS, BAD MAMAJAMAS

What We live with, We Learn - What We Learn, We Practice - What We Practice We Become

WHAT WE BECOME HAS CONSEQUENCES – This quarter we will put our focus on a “real 4th/10th step inventory, using the ‘searchlight of the Truth’ which will reveal the areas of lives that we have become someone we didn’t want to be clean, as stated in the ‘flat book’, those areas where we have allowed one of the ‘D’s to Distort our perception, and thus shift our perspective of who, what and why we are not really enjoying the gift of recovery. As we focus on these questions, keep in mind that you are an Expert at Self Deception and if that cunning enemy of life ‘Rationalization’ shows its ugly head, your answer will again be written by your Disease.
