This thought brings us to Step Ten,
which suggests we
continue to take personal inventory and continue to set
right any new mistakes as we go along. We vigorously
commenced this way of living as we cleaned up the past.
We have entered the world of the Spirit. Our next function
is to grow in understanding and effectiveness. This is not
an overnight matter. It should continue for our lifetime.
Continue to watch for selfishness, dishonesty, resentment,
and fear. When these crop up, we ask God at once to
remove them. We discuss them with someone immedi-
ately and make amends quickly if we have harmed anyone.
Then we resolutely turn our thoughts to someone we can
help. Love and tolerance of others is our code.

Step Eleven suggests prayer and meditation. We
shouldn’t be shy on this matter of prayer. Better men
When we retire at night, we constructively review our
day. Were we resentful, selfish, dishonest or afraid? Do
we owe an apology? Have we kept something to our-
elves which should be discussed with another person at
once? Were we kind and loving toward all? What could
we have done better? Were we thinking of ourselves
most of the time? Or were we thinking of what we could
do for others, of what we could pack into the stream of
ife? But we must be careful not to drift into worry,
emorse or morbid reflection, for that would diminish our
usefulness to others. After making our review we ask
God’s forgiveness and inquire what corrective measures
hould be taken.
On awakening let us think about the twenty-four hours
ahead. We consider our plans for the day. Before we
begin, we ask God to direct our thinking, especially asking
hat it be divorced from self-pity, dishonest or self-seeking
motives. Under these conditions we can employ our men-
al faculties with assurance, for after all God gave us brains
o use. Our thought-life will be placed on a much higher
plane when our thinking is cleared of wrong motives.
In thinking about our day we may face indecision.
We may not be able to determine which course to
ake. Here we ask God for inspiration, an intuitive
hought or a decision. We relax and take it easy. We
don’t struggle. We are often surprised how the right
answers come after we have tried this for a while.
What used to be the hunch or the occasional inspiration
gradually becomes a working part of the mind. Being still
inexperienced and having just made conscious contact with
God, it is not probable that we are going to be inspired at
all times. We might pay for this presumption in all sorts of
absurd actions and ideas. Nevertheless, we find that our
thinking will, as time passes, be more and more on the
plane of inspiration. We come to rely upon it.
We usually conclude the period of meditation with a
prayer that we be shown all through the day what our
next step is to be, that we be given whatever we need to
take care of such problems. We ask especially for free-
dom from self-will, and are careful to make no request for
ourselves only. We may ask for ourselves, however, if
others will be helped. We are careful never to pray for
our own selfish ends. Many of us have wasted a lot of
time doing that and it doesn’t work. You can easily see
why.
If circumstances warrant, we ask our wives or friends
to join us in morning meditation. If we belong to a reli-
gious denomination which requires a definite morning
devotion, we attend to that also. If not members of reli-
gious bodies, we sometimes select and memorize a few
set prayers which emphasize the principles we have been
discussing. There are many helpful books also. Sugges-
tions about these may be obtained from one’s priest,
minister, or rabbi. Be quick to see where religious people
are right. Make use of what they offer.
As we go through the day we pause, when agitated
or doubtful, and ask for the right thought or action.
We constantly remind ourselves we are no longer
running the show, humbly saying to ourselves many times
each day “Thy will be done.” We are then in much less
danger of excitement, fear, anger, worry, self-pity, or fool-
ish decisions. We become much more efficient. We do
not tire so easily, for we are not burning up energy fool-
ishly as we did when we were trying to arrange life to suit
ourselves.
It works—it really does.
We alcoholics are undisciplined. So we let God disci-
pline us in the simple way we have just outlined
