Join Joe McDonald as he reads from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, delving into the essential process of Step 4 AA. In this session, Joe explores the analogy of taking a commercial inventory and applying it to our personal lives, emphasizing the importance of uncovering and addressing personal flaws and damaged goods.
“Taking a commercial inventory is a fact-finding and a fact-facing process. It’s an effort to discover the truth about the stock in trade. One object is to disclose damaged or unsaleable goods to get rid of them promptly and without regret. If the owner of the business is to be successful, he cannot fool himself about values. We did exactly the same thing with our lives.”
Joe discusses the need to thoroughly examine our lives, much like a business owner would with their inventory, to identify and address any personal shortcomings. “People can tell you they’re going to trick you through the step process, but we have to go in and unpack it to see what exactly the same things were because here’s the deal.”
Joe’s insights shed light on the importance of rigorous self-examination and honesty in the recovery process. This session emphasizes the power of introspection and the support found within recovery communities.
