great topic!
we should give ourselves some credit,I look at it as being negative and positive about sobriety and life
I know from my personal experience if I consistently look for those negative things,I am taking away from the chance to look for the good in me and in others.I have often believed Bill switching from the positive to the negative stops us from striving and focusing for the good and keeps us putting too much focus on the negative.Focusing on the negative too much brings stress,anxiety,and takes away from the joy of sobriety today

I do a tenth step,but only when necessary....otherwise,it`s off to steps 11-12 for me
