A Guide to the 12 Steps by Dr. Silkworth

Remember to keep your thinking straight.
Remember that a wrong act will prey on your
mind until you either do something to rectify it
or get drunk.
Remember that defects will creep into your life
if given half a chance.
Remember that if only through gratitude, we
must help others in order to help ourselves.
And if at any time you feel uncertain of your-
self, read the Twelve Steps carefully, applying
them to yourself. You will find an answer to your
problem.
If the answer is not there, a telephone call or a
visit to another member of AA will bring the
answer.

Putting some of the old with the new and the new with the old.

This is a one day at a time program. What Step did you need today?

Did you start the day with the 1, 2, 3 Waltz? I can't, God can, just for today, I choose to let Him.

When was the last time you did a Step 4? It is suggested that you do one yearly. As you grow in the program, your perception changes and you get to look at things from a new angle and it brings a new light to things which brings about further healing, if you allow it to come in. Have you found any more willingness to make an amend to that person that you put on the back burner. Have you made an amend to yourself? Did you make an amend to God.

When was the last time you did a Step 11. When was the last time you went on a 12 Step call?
