working Step 11
With help from the book, Alcoholics Anonymous
- On awakening, do you think about the 24
hours ahead and consider your plans for the day?
- Before you begin, do you ask God to direct
your thinking, especially asking that it be divorced from self-pity,
dishonest or self-seeking motives?
- Do you refrain from making requests for
yourself only, except in cases where others may be helped?
- How do you handle indecision? Do you ask God
for inspiration, an intuitive thought or a decision? Do you relax and take
it easy, or do you struggle?
- Do you pray to be shown all throughout the
day what your next step is to be, and that you be given whatever you need to
take care of such problems?
- Do you ask for freedom from self-will?
- Do you refrain from making requests for
yourself only, except in cases where others may be helped?
- Are you careful never to pray for your own
selfish ends?
- If circumstances warrant, do you ask your
spouse or friends to join you in morning meditation?
- Do you attend to your religious morning
devotion?
- Do you pause when agitated or doubtful, and
ask for the right thought or action?
- Do you remind yourself that you are no longer running
the show, humbly saying to yourself many times each day, "Thy will be
done"?
