Module 7: Essential Life Skills in Recovery
IN THIS LESSON
Integrating life skills into your daily life can significantly enhance your recovery journey. Some of these may feel like a bit of repetition, but here are some tips on how to make life skills a sustainable part of your routine (again):
Set Daily Intentions: Start each day with a clear intention or goal. This can help you stay focused and motivated throughout the day.
Reflect on Your Progress: Take time to reflect on your achievements and areas for improvement. Regular self-reflection can help you stay on track and make necessary adjustments.
Seek Feedback: Ask for feedback from trusted friends, family, or mentors and sponsors. Constructive feedback can provide valuable insights and help you grow.
Practice Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself as you develop new skills. Understand that learning and growth take time, and it's okay to make mistakes.
Create a Supportive Environment: Surround yourself with people and environments that support your recovery and personal growth. Remove or limit exposure to negative influences.
Stay Consistent: Consistency is critical to developing and maintaining life skills. Make a commitment to practice these skills regularly until they become second nature.
Reward Yourself: Celebrate your successes, no matter how small. Rewards can provide positive reinforcement and motivation to continue your efforts.
Remember, if you are persistent, you will get it, and if you are consistent, you will keep it!
