Position of Neutrality: Embracing Identity and Intentions in Steps 5, 6, & 7 AA
Join Joe McDonald as he reads from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, diving into the essential practice of owning our identity and behaviors in Steps 5, 6, & 7. Reflecting on the gap between how we behave and who we truly are, Joe encourages a deeper self-awareness and conscious decision-making in our recovery journey.“I have got to do a better job of owning who I am and owning how I behave because how I behave isn’t who I am. I think it is, but it isn’t. How I behave is how you think I am. But it doesn’t tell you my intention at all many times. Does that make sense? So what I need to do is walk in identity more of the time so I can encourage you to walk in identity more of the time and hence the idea for a disciplined thought life and this manner of living we’re prepping for, yes? It should all be making sense. If it’s making sense, then we’re on the right track. You’re not going to be able to move into a conscious relationship without making a conscious decision. You’ve got to examine it with your senses. It’s not a matter of saying yes, I agree or yes, I understand. If you do, you do.”Joe’s discussion sheds light on the importance of walking in our true identity and intentions, emphasizing the need for a disciplined thought life and conscious decision-making in recovery.Join us as Joe McDonald reads and expands on the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, offering deeper understanding and practical advice for those on their recovery journey.
