The 12 Suggested Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous

1)  We admitted we were powerless over alcohol--that our lives had become unmanageable.
2)  Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3)  Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
4)  Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
5)  Admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
6)  Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
7)  Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
8)  Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
9)  Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
10) Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.
11) Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God, as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.
12) Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

I believe these 12 steps were another gift from God for all of  humanity.
You do not need to be an alcoholic or addict to incorporate this spiritual way of living into your life.
Alcohol is only mentioned in the first step !
You can easily replace the word alcohol with any issue causing you difficulty today.
