The Simple Approach to the 12 Steps!

Step 1: There's a power that will kill me.

Step 2: There's a power that wants me to live.

Step 3: Which do I want? (If you want to die, stop here. If you want to live, go on.)

Step 4: Using examples from your own life, understand that selfishness, dishonesty, resentment, and fear control your actions.

Step 5: Tell all your private, embarrassing secrets to another person.

Step 6: Decide whether or not you want to live that way any more.

Step 7: If you want your life to change, ask a power greater than yourself to change it for you. (If you could have changed it yourself, you would have long ago.)

Step 8: Figure out how to make right all the things you did wrong.

Step 9: Fix what you can without causing more trouble in the process.

Step 10: Understand that making mistakes is part of being human (When you make a mistake, fix it, immediately if you can.)

Step 11: Ask for help to treat yourself and others the way you want your higher power to treat you.

Step 12: Don't stop doing 1 through 11, and PASS IT ON!!
