Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
Best efforts
If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain. — Emily Dickinson
Success can’t be measured by the number of those who have heard a message of hope for a better life. We constantly remind ourselves of this whenever a single cry for help arises. One success in a Twelve Step group more than makes up for any number of failures.

When success comes we are reminded not to let pride carry us away. We have learned in recovery to keep our winnings in proper perspective.
I am not in the results business. My main task is to make my best effort. Results are added benefits.
