Personally - I do not list 'assets'. I just follow what the book says to do for this step:

We continue to watch for:
selfishness
dishonesty
resentment
fear

WHEN they appear (not IF) - there are a few things to do:
Ask God to remove them
Discuss it with another person
Ammend any harm.

That is the tenth step.

My practice is evolving - I need to talk with another more often about these things when they come up and not be the arbiter of what qualifies as being 'discussable' and 'not discussable' (major vs minor etc). I recently heard someone share on a very specific tenth step practice which involves tracking these things daily and doing a summary of them all once per week with their sponsor (he is sober many years and still does this once per week) - his experience with this made it attractive and I am going to do something similair.

Any lengths.
