Stepping Outside – Step Twelve (Part 3)
Manage episode 382320441 series 2925012
in the first two episodes in which we examined step number 12, I spoke about what I consider to be the first two parts of the 12th step. This third, and final part of both the steps and of this series of episodes, is the perfect ending, or if you will, beginning!
This final phrase of the 12th step is that I practice these principles in all my affairs. What better idea could describe the philosophy behind this series of episodes? As I have been involved in this program, from the 1st step through the 11th step, it has been mostly about me. Sure, there have been others involved in the 5th and 9th steps, but they were mostly there in order for me to become a better spiritual person. Actually, I haven’t been entirely truthful with you describing it as the end of the steps or of the program. The real secret of this program, and the way in which we derive the most benefit from it, is in the following sentence.
The secret to getting the most benefit from a beautiful idea, is to give it away!
I think I will leave it at that.
