The first chapter of Pass It On is about Bills early family life and adolescence.

those six steps , in one of their outlines, made much more sense to me when i first looked at AA than the 12 steps.
they seemed simple and doable.

I hear you. Fewer steps and more direct. Personally, I like the first original step one....we admitted we were licked.
Then, being alcoholics, or just regular people, of course the whole program got more and more complicated and drawn out and elaborate.
Not complaining, just saying.
