At the top of the 90 day forum, it says, "A recent scientific study shows that it takes 90 days to break an addictive pattern in the mind."

Does anyone know the source?

The quote about a "recent" study has been up for years. I guess "recent" is a relative term .

I would like to share:


Thoughts on the Parasha and Recovery
R' Twerski's special weekly message for the GYE Community

Email #28- Parshas Mishpotim
Feb. 13, 2015 ~ 24 Shvat 5775
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Follow G O D (Good Orderly Directions)

When Hashem gave the Jews the Torah, they said, "naaseh v'nishma", we will do and we will listen. The commentaries ask, "How can they do before they hear?"

At an AA meeting, a prominent lawyer, who was celebrating his 40th year of sobriety, said, "When I first joined AA, I was making meetings, but still getting drunk. I asked an old-timer why the program wasn't working for me. He said, 'Fella, I've been watching you. You're trying to understand how this program works. Stop that. Just do as you're told and keep your ears open.'

"I was insulted. I am an attorney. I have to understand how things work. But I kept on getting drunk, so I decided to try his way. Now I'm 40 years sober."

That is naaseh v'nishma. Do as you're told and keep your ears open.


A great message from R' Twerski
I hope you'll enjoy it.
 *  NO, It's not all or nothing, just every bit counts!
 *  I failed yesterday, and I might fail tomorrow. But just for today I'm going to give it a try.
 *  Being curios made me lust and get into trouble.
