    Hey! Yea, I think I would say 2 things have been impacting me the most - my friends at my church are not too posh to show me my blind spots, if necessary, in a healthy way (and I’m smart enough to listen to them). And also hundreds of hours of Dan Mohler sermons…

    Hey!
    I would say, by far the most important thing I could think of is that all of my actions are a direct result of my faith and it’s my responsibility to maintain and build it (2Tim 4:7).
    Whatever is in my belief system will manifest in my behavior - and I can directly manipulate my faith just like I would tend to a garden.
    I found a strategy that worked for me, I explained it in a couple posts in the past :)

    Hi all
    I’m very tired and fittingly, my review for today is fairly short.

    **External Triggers** - Another day at work with very little probability to encounter external triggers - that’s good.

    **Protective Habits** - I didn’t get the best sleep at night so I was a little scattered this morning and totally forgot to do my daily declaration! This is only the second time this ever happened, so, statistically, I’m still doing well… :)

    **Urge Coping** - As far as I can remember, I didn’t encounter any urges today - very good.

    Many blessings,

    Hi all,
    Happy Friday!

    Here is the review I did for today.

    **External Triggers** - I spent my whole day at work, no triggers encountered!

    **Protective Habits** - Again, I wasn’t able to do all of my morning routine as I’m still a little bit between things; but I got most of it done, I’ll take it.

    **Urge Coping** - As far as I can think back, I didn’t experience any urges today - very good!

    Many blessings,

    Hi all!

    Here is the review I did for today.

    **External Triggers** - I went out for a cup of coffee with a friend today and I noticed how my mind & eyes wanted to habitually slip into old behavior of staring, etc. Once I became consciously aware, I took responsibility for my behavior and the old habit stopped trying.

    **Protective Habits** - I did all of my protective habits today - on Sunday, they’re much less than on workdays.

    **Urge Coping** - I remember having 1-2 times where I felt urges coming up - it’s been some time since I’ve been in a situation like this so I’m not sure yet what to do with it.

    Many blessings,

    Hi all!
    Here is the review I did for today.

    **External Triggers** - Today was a full day at work again, I didn’t encounter any triggers - very good.

    **Protective Habits** - I was only able to do a fairly small amount of my daily morning routine since I’m still a little dislodged in my living situation but I finally found an place to get more settled at the beginning of next year - finally!

    **Urge Coping** - I didn’t encounter any urges today - great!

    Many blessings,

    Hi all!

    I'm going to put my daily reviews on pause until the new year - I've still been considering restructuring and moving my daily check-ins to more personal venues - but that's something that needs to be worked out.

    Merry Christmas!

    Hi All!

    Happy New Year, everyone!

    Alright, I took myself some time to think and plan on how to reorganize my daily check-in/reflection routine and I decided to stop the daily reviews in this thread and move it to 1-1s, as they were getting somewhat repetitive.
    I also want to move my accountability to a more personal level, As @Tao Jones always says, if you’re accountable to a whole group, in the end, you’re accountable to noone.

    Many blessings,

    Hi all!
    Hope your 2023 has been starting off well!

    I’m joining a discipleship-program at my church and won’t have as much time to be as active here anymore.

    Many blessings!
