Old thread but a goodie!
There is time to do what we need to do, there is lawyas time. The thing for me is to be practicing the steps. I have never stopped since I first started some years ago and am here reading this as I am doing yet another step 4.
The thing about doing it from NA Literarure is that it applies to me and for me it is more detailed.
I never worry how long any step takes so long as I am in the process (practicing the steps).
