Many people have asked me “how to you work your program?” And, “what does it mean to take the Steps every day?”
The above picture is what my first sponsor told me that I need to do everyday to work my program. I have been following it ever since I first joined program.
To find a food plan, please go to the page on the blog on food plans.
For me, working the tools everyday has been extremely helpful to help me organize my day and create structure and boundaries in my life.
I believe that no one needs to wait until taking Steps 10 and 11 to start a practice of daily prayer, meditation or to start doing a daily inventory.
If you are new to program, please listen to any of the 12 Steps in 1 Hour Sessions or 12 Steps in 4 Hours Workshop. That will hopefully give a good introduction on how to take the steps.
Below are the various documents that I have written that I find very helpful. I find that I need to do a variety of daily inventories or worksheets so that I don’t get bored or complacent. See which one resonates with you, or even better, create your own!
Here is a new one page daily Step 10 Inventory:
