Some helpful acronyms are always a reliable staple in recovery. False Evidence Appearing Real (F.E.A.R.). Fucked-up Insecure Neurotic and Emotional (F.I.N.E). Etcetera. All these things are fine and fucking dandy, but I have found that they aren’t nearly as helpful as the acronym T.H.I.N.K. I have used this acronym in many situations. It applies not only in talking with others but should not be overlooked when talking to yourself (that “inside voice”). Are you ready? Of course, you are. The acronym is used right before you are about to say something. Pause and ask these basic questions: Is it Thoughtful? Honest? Inspired? Needed? Or Kind? If what you’re about to say can be one of these five things, you have a good chance of not harming yourself or others with your words. It takes practice, but try this one for a while before discarding the practice.
Reflections
Are your words always thoughtful, honest, inspired, needed, or kind? Maybe you can stop and THINK about that?
Daily Challenge
Put this into practice with how you talk to yourself starting right now.
