Organize your priorities by asking yourself what is most important to you. Taking the time to answer this question can help reduce decision fatigue and eliminate the mental clutter that comes with trying to decide where to place your time and energy.

Let go of a grudge. Forgiving yourself or someone else can help clear away negative energy so you can focus on more positive aspects of your sober life. While it’s normal to feel anger and hurt from past events in your life, allowing these feelings to fill your heart can harm your emotional health and your recovery.

Sweep away self-criticism. This can take some practice, but it is doable. Start by swapping negative self-talk with positive phrases like “I’m doing my best.” Try to remind yourself that life and recovery is about progress, not perfection.
