Join Joe McDonald as he reads from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, exploring the critical self-examination required in Step 4. In this session, Joe delves into the concept of self-defeat and the importance of identifying the flaws in our makeup that lead to failure.
“So we took stock honestly first we searched out the flaws in our makeup which caused our failure. Being convinced that self manifested in various ways was what had defeated us, we considered its common manifestations. Do you understand when they use words like that that we don’t commonly word what they’re talking about? I think of myself one way. But then I want to impress you or I’m mad at you or something and I act out in a different way that is not how I want to think about myself. That’s when my self manifested based on fear or whatever. So I’m going to have to look at that to see how I ended up in the deplorable condition I ended up.”
Joe’s discussion emphasizes the need for honest self-reflection and understanding the various ways self manifests in our actions and decisions. This session highlights the importance of recognizing and addressing these manifestations to progress in recovery.
