    yeah, it’s an AA slogan, and a stupid self-contradictory one, too (like a lot of things in AA/NA). like, i guess i should never practice anything expecting to improve? so much for my piano lessons and weight training!

      I flipped a coin and it came up heads. If I flip the same coin I should expect the same result apparently.

      But if you’re improving then you’re not doing the same thing over and over, you’re doing it different / better each time.
