October 2026
A.A. Principles:
Step 10: Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.
Tradition 10: Alcoholics Anonymous has no opinion on outside issues; hence the A. A. name ought never be drawn into public controversy.
Words from Bill W.:”When we retire at night, we constructively review our day…We must be careful not to drift into worry, remorse, or morbid reflection, for that would diminish our usefulness to ourselves and to others. After making our review, we ask God’s forgiveness and inquire what corrective measures should be taken.”
