How It Works/Back to Basics (The Daily Trudge)

Sometimes recovery doesn’t fall apart because we need something new — it falls apart because we drifted away from what already works. Complication, overthinking, burnout, and ego creep in, and before we know it, we’re no longer doing the simple things that kept us grounded in the first place.

“How It Works” isn’t outdated. It isn’t basic in a dismissive way. It’s foundational. When life gets loud, emotions run high, or sobriety feels shaky, the answer is rarely more information — it’s returning to the fundamentals that saved our lives.

In today’s Daily Trudge, we talk about:

• Why recovery drifts over time
• How complexity sneaks in quietly
• What “back to basics” really means
• Why simple doesn’t mean easy
• How ego complicates recovery
• The danger of thinking we’ve outgrown the basics
• Why the Steps still work when we actually work them
• How God meets us in simplicity

We don’t need a new solution.
We need renewed commitment to the one that already works.

Back to basics isn’t going backward —
it’s getting re-centered.
