using dreams are but the most obvious symptom that my program may be lacking.
for me, i need to look at my behaviors daily for the creeping progress of complacency, and lack of due diligence in my program.
the things i look for are:
i want to believe that i am this spiritual giant who has this recovery thing down, but the truth is i am just a human being that suffers from self-cnteredness arising from the disease of addiction.
... but just for today i will do my best to live this program and see what happens.

the things i look for are:
- did i gossip or talk about someone behind their back
- was i an a$$hole while driving
- did i hurt someone with a smart a$$ comment
- did i ignore a cry for help
- did i pray and meditate today
- was i judgemental or defensive
- was i present for those i love and care about
- did i go out of my way to "stir the pot" or foster chaos and discord
- and most of all did i remember who and what i am
