info_outlineIn this week's Agent of Recovery Podcast, Max, Brock, and Blu discuss how to remain reachable in recovery. It is an incredibly important concept that helps to ensure a successful recovery journey.
Remaining teachable means embracing a mindset of always wanting to learn, change and grow. Often, it can be difficult for those in early recovery to fully understand and accept this simple but critical concept. Yet, it is a concept that can be life-changing.
In recovery, it is easy to feel powerless and to become complacent. In many cases, the person in recovery has been in an unhealthy environment which has created difficulties and thus can have a tendency to conform. Being teachable helps individuals to keep their recovery journey active and progressive. It helps them to avoid becoming stagnant and complacent in their recovery and acting out of habit rather than making conscious choices.
Being teachable encourages continuous learning and growth, understanding that each day presents an opportunity to discover something new and challenging. It takes time and practice but encourages individuals to see every experience as an opportunity for change and growth.
Not only does remaining teachable help individuals stay motivated in their recovery journey, but it also cultivates resilience. The more open people are to learning, the more strength and support they receive from the rest of the recovery community. It encourages individuals to reach out for the help that they need when faced with tough times.
Remaining teachable also demands humility and a willingness to accept advice from others. It requires individuals to remain open-minded despite any hesitations that they may have. It enables them to seek information from different sources rather than relying solely on their own understanding.
The very nature of being teachable allows individuals to have control over their own destinies by understanding that they have the power to make positive changes on a daily basis. Every day creates the opportunity for growth and learning, so by remaining teachable, those in recovery can continue with the progress they have made so far.
We hope this video has been informative and has encouraged you to remain teachable throughout your recovery journey. Remember, with the right attitude and dedication, anything is possible!
