Writing Prompts and the 12 Principles

  1. Surrender. (Capitulation to hopelessness.) 
2. Hope. (Step 2 is the mirror image or opposite of step 1. In step 1 we admit that alcohol is our higher power, and that our lives are unmanageable. In step 2, we find a different Higher Power who we hope will bring about a return to sanity in management of our lives.) 
3. Commitment. (The key word in step 3 is decision.) 
4. Honesty. (An inventory of self.) 
5. Truth. (Candid confession to God and another human being.) 
6. Willingness. (Choosing to abandon defects of character.) 
7. Humility. (Standing naked before God, with nothing to hide, and asking that our flaws—in His eyes—be removed.) 
8. Reflection. (Who have we harmed? Are we ready to amend?) 
9. Amendment. (Making direct amends/restitution/correction, etc..) 
10. Vigilance. (Exercising self-discovery, honesty, abandonment, humility, reflection and amendment on a momentary, daily, and periodic basis.) 
11. Attunement. (Becoming as one with our Father.) 
12. Service. (Awakening into sober usefulness.)
