Staying Motivated – Worksheet 2

This second Staying Motivated worksheet opens with a personal writing exercise asking readers to reflect on the people in their lives – those who lift their spirits and strengthen their commitment to sobriety, as well as those who drain their energy or pull them toward old habits. From there, it presents all eleven strategies from the Staying Motivated lesson in a clear, actionable format: writing down reasons for sobriety, setting layered goals, keeping enthusiasm alive through milestones and sober activities, surrounding oneself with positive people, building an accountability network, sharing goals openly, shifting focus from sober dates to overall health, continuing to learn, identifying competing urges, drawing on the experiences of others in recovery, and regularly trying new things. The worksheet closes by asking readers to identify which strategies they are ready to put into practice right away, turning the lesson’s concepts into a personal action plan.
