    FEBRUARY 5 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Honesty is the only policy"
    Feb 5 2026
    If I am troubled, worried, exasperated, or frustrated, do I tend to rationalize the situation and lay the blame on someone else? When I am in such a state, is my conversation punctuated with, "He did. "She said "They did..."? Or can I honestly admit that perhaps I'm at fault. My peace of mind depends on overcoming my negative attitudes and my tendency to rationalize. Will I try, day by day, to be rigorously honest with myself? Today I Pray … May I catch myself as I talk in the third person. He did. or "They promised. "She said she would and listen for the blaming that has become such a pattern for me and preserves delusion May I do a turnabout and face myself instead Today I Will Remember … Honesty is the only policy.

  • FEBRUARY 4 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Deny denial"

    FEBRUARY 4 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Deny denial"
    Feb 3 2026
    Rare is the recovering compulsive gambler who will now dispute the fact that denial is a primary symptom of the illness. The Gamblers Anonymous Program teaches us that compulsive gambling actually tells the afflicted person that he or she really isn't sick at all. Not surprisingly, then, our lives as addictive gamblers were characterized by endless rationalizations and dishonesty and, in short, a steadfast unwillingness to accept the fact that we were, without question, emotionally and mentally different from our fellows. Have I admitted to my innermost self that I am truly powerless over my compulsion to gamble? Today I Pray … May the First Step be not half-hearted for me, but a total admission of powerlessness over my addiction. May I rid myself of that first symptom - denial - which refuses to recognize any other symptom of my illness. Today I Will Remember … Deny denial. A Day at a Time https://amzn.to/3EOjuiH G.A.

  • FEBRUARY 3 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "To err is human"

    FEBRUARY 3 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "To err is human"
    Feb 3 2026
    Gamblers Anonymous enables us to discover two roadblocks that keep us from seeing the value and comfort of the spiritual approach: self-justification and self-righteousness. The first grimly assures me that I'm always right. The second mistakenly comforts me with the delusion that I'm better than other people - "holier than thou." Just for today, will I pause abruptly while rationalizing and ask myself why I am doing this, and whether my self-justification is really honest? Today I Pray … May I overcome the need to be "always right" and know the cleansing feeling of release that comes with admitting, openly, a mistake. May I be wary of setting myself up as an example of self-control and fortitude, and give credit where it is due to a Higher Power. Today I Will Remember … To err is human, but I need to admit it.
