1) REMOVING “THE GROUND GLASS”
The moral inventory is a cool examination of the damages that occurred to us during life and a sincere effort to look at them in a true perspective. This has the effect of taking the ground glass out of us, the emotional substance that still cuts and inhibits.

2) SELF CENTERED FEAR
“As we’re taught in the Twelve Steps, the chief activator of our defects has been self-centered fear. Mainly fear that we would lose something we already possessed or that we would fail to get something we demanded. Living on the basis of unsatisfied demands, we obviously were in a state of continual disturbance and frustration. Therefore, we are taught, there will be no peace unless we are able to reduce these demands.”

3) GRATITUDE
In sobriety, find gratitude not just for the blessings, but for the battles you’ve fought and won. They have shaped you into the warrior you are today.
4) PRINCIPLE OF SPIRITUALITY
Practicing the principle of spirituality means doing the next right thing- whether it’s taking ownership, making amends, or being kind, caring, and supportive- when I trust in my morals, core values, and my spirituality, it all works out! The principle of spirituality is a reminder that we all have challenging days but we can turn to prayer and meditation, asking our Higher Power for guidance.
