Thom’s Nutshell:

“When you want something, do you begin with a commitment to make it happen or a list of reasons that it probably won't?"

The mighty Carol Carter joins us again from the front of a different kind of recovery: triage from a flood which devastated her home. In our pursuit of emotional sobriety, integrity matters most. In adjusting our expectations to meet the moment, we can also “change our source of self-esteem”, to put us into congruency with our value system.
