Don't be too discouraged then, Kjell. You've got as far as knowing in your heart that you are powerless. And you've demonstrated it with a concrete example. That's a huge step, and one that many people never take.
Next step is to know in your heart that you need to tap into some power. Lack of power is our problem. But where were we to find this power? Well, that's exactly what this book (Big Book) is about. It's main object is to enable you to find a power greater than yourself which will solve your problem. Blah blah blah.
