As for the year suggestion... it give us the time needed to find ourself and figure out what we want from life but it also give those around us the time to see we are serious about our recovery. It isn't a set in stone rule but more so the experiences seen over time that has worked for others. I can fake it for a few days or even a few months. Ask me to do something for a year and when my actions are true...I will last the year and more.
The suggestion is more of saying... actions over time tell the truth.
