Whether or not you are familiar with 12-step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous, you are probably familiar with some of the sayings associated with them. "Let go and let God," is just one example. For those in recovery, it's a powerful reminder of the 12 steps, but it's relevant for almost anyone who struggles with worry or face obstacles.
We've collected some sayings associated with 12-step programs, or adopted by them, and hope they'll offer inspiration and encouragement.

Battling an obstacle or an issue in your life? It will pass, everything does. Don't let it bother you.
Being grateful can help you remember the good things in your life.
Focus on what you can do today. Don't try to tackle all your problems at once.
The sky's the limit! We all have the ability to achieve our ultimate goal by doing whatever it takes.
There's no need to put pressure on yourself. Take life one stride at a time and you'll be surprised at the goals you have accomplished without the stress.
You don't have to solve everyone's problems. Just focus on your life and your choices.
