I've worked steps one through 3 multiple times and I'm currently starting step one again. I don't see the steps as a magical cure to my condition but more as a series of guidelines that have been developed to help me live my life.

I know people with 20+ years of sobriety and clean time that have worked the steps multiple times in many different ways. It's clearly working for them and I want some of what they've got. That clarity, the wisdom they've acquired from working each step and applying it to their lives.

The steps don't work if you don't 'work' them. And working them requires finding a sponsor that will help guide you through the steps and truly understand their meaning.

I wish you the best of luck.
