Slogans - whats your favorite? what do you keep returning to?

Have only begun to start using some of the slogans. I used the Just for Today bookmark almost daily when I first got here in Oct. What slogans do you keep using?

i cant really say i have a favorite, i guess if i had to pick one, it would be "how important is it?"  It keeps me from one of my biggest defects of trying to control.  Honestly, i use the slogans as many times as i can in the day.  For every situation that comes to play in the day, i can find a slogan that i can apply, that is of course if i stop and think and get out of my own self will.


love ya, trina

Hi barbara   


As I began to know HP and started to unburden myself, the program sezs to turn it over.The things that really weren't up to me that I had an interest in how they came out I came to realize I was interferring with,taking on more than what was mine or couldn't handle . So even so it was scarry i started LET GO AND LET GOD


At first it was a test and then became more and more intense.  It worked in many ways, not always my way ,but I decided it was the way HP wanted, and started letting that be. And I let the others take responsibility for their mess and consequence. My life had more time and energy for other things HP had in store for me then.


Hope this one helps.          ..............BLESSINGS..............

Mine is .... "Don't react!!" and after that a close second is..."When in doubt....DON'T"  (Last one from my sponsor)


You can have both!!

I don't like slogans. I think they are trite. But if I had to pick one it would be, "Take what you like and leave the rest." Diva

Let it go!!!!!!


I use to hold to much of it inside.  Now I just let it go.  It is very hard but life is soooooo much better when I do.
