Obsessing

Tonight at my recovery meeting I spoke about my experience with my tendency to obsess about events in my life.  Earlier today I went into obsession about the book I am in the process of publishing and promoting.  Basically, the process was not going according to my plan and I was obsessing about potential actions and things I could say to make everything fit my plan.  In this case, my obsessing only lasted 1 & ½ or 2 hours, pretty good since obsessing and efforts to control used to occupy my thoughts.  What I did was begin meditating, asking myself “how important is it” and feeling the peace and love of knowing that everything was just fine.
