If you want a thing done “right,” you have to do it yourself. —Anonymous—
We addicts can be very picky. We think there’s only one way to do things. It’s our way,
But we call it the right way. When we think like this, three things happen. First, we put
down other people. Second, we end up doing all the work. Third, everyone feels bad.
The other person feels hurt that we don’t respect him or her. And we feel angry
because we “had” to do all the work.
We need to know that there are many ways to do things. It’s okay when others don’t
do things our way. Their way probably works just fine for them. If they want your
advice they’ll ask for it.
Prayer for the Day:  Higher Power, help me accept other people and their ways.
Action for the Day:  Today, I’ll watch how other people do things. Maybe I’ll
learn a better way to do some things.
