10 thru 12 all the time

1-3 on living life on life's terms (powerless over anything outside of my self)

A question to those that say the only work 10 through 12 as maintenance and no other who has completed the steps.

Lets say your ego flares up which step would you be working on 6 or if you took your will back completely would that be 10-12 or step 3.

Just a thought always wanted to ask that question when i here they only work 10-12

Just curious and no controversy here please as we are all aa friends.

To Recovery

Well Jim what about if some days the ego goes to extremes or last say for humility is out of wack them what?

Currently doing at written 10th step trying to stay focused on that. My ego is always a companion really nothing new, I pray more on a given day when I'm real wrapped up. Meditation and literature always (everyday) and I love the meeting after the meeting and am always working with someone.

damn Billy never heard of a 10 th step written is it like a fourth that many no more than once?
I understand you can pray to remove whatever ales ya but for this alcoholic and how I was taught i should go to which step is kicking my ass at any given moment.

BUT

I understand if it works for for thats great!

ha, yes gjm, I go to what step WILL kick my ass lol. I do my best not to leave no stone unturned. Need some accountability at times, and I've got a few mates who do that. At the moment? Step 12, the joy of living. xxx

Phil, Good thing about the program we all do are programs a bit different.
The only absolute is the 1st step.

Hope all is well in your world.

so did you listen to it or not cause how can you even know what was shared unless you listen to it?

Phil, No I didn't is there anything that I mentioned from my reply would it have changed my response?
Ya might think that's a bit closed minded of the subject but I strive to be a open minded kinda guy.
I stick to my response.

Movin right along. I will send you a PM.
