Step 6 - Tom (AA)

Step 6 seems like a quiet step but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a deeply powerful one. Tom shares why Step 6 and Step 7, 'the fulcrum of the steps' as he sees them, are so important to him and his ongoing recovery that he continues to revisit and practice them. ‘It’s really about asking your Higher Power, for you to foresee a future life without [your defects] where you could be a much great version of yourself. That’s a lot about the willingness. It’s just, ‘ok, I’ve been following my advice my whole life, I’m open to a new set of directions... So I invite [my Higher Power] into the conversation. But it’s also about faith in action.’’ Step 6: Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character
