Step 4 of the 12 Steps Part 1

Step 4 is the first action step. 'Made a Searching and Fearless Moral Inventory of Ourselves'. In this video I talk about my fears around doing it but also the importance of this step.

    I'm 3 days clean today and it's not as bad as I was expecting. I smoked weed 3 to 5 times daily for the last 15 years. These videos help a lot. Thank you

    I am honestly frustrated. People before me were fortunate to have old school Sponsors to TAKE THEM THROUGH THIS PROCESS that is absolutely NEW to me! Now, we're left with folks who microwave the step and excessively talk ABOUT what it does, how it will change you rather than teaching HOW TO actually do the damn step!

    Watching this is a perfect end to my weekend so thank you. I’ve Just finished step 3 and I’m moving forward to 4 this week This has simplified it before my next meeting with my Sponsor. I have a good idea what to expect . I’ve thought of over 10 defects / resentments already 😂. As you said alot of people get anxious about step 4 but I have thoroughly been through and accepted 1-3 so my willingness to move onto step 4 is hopefully proof of this. Keep up the good work you kept me sober tonight !

    Just started 12 steps a couple days ago, I have written some things down on Step 1 2 and 3. I love watching your videos I have full-blown ADHD and I hate reading. Finding this all very intimidating and heavy yet exciting. Interesting thing about me, I quit drinking and smoking 13 years ago and I have not touched them since not a drop or a puff. But I never changed, I've been the same screwed-up person if not worse then when I started. I'm looking forward to the change. But talk about a gross feeling. I just want to crawl in a hole and die. The thought of being a completely different person terrifies me and I honestly have no idea how I'm going to complete step for honestly. I'm scared that I'm going to lie to myself about certain things that I want to take to my grave out of the fear of never being able to face them. mostly because I don't want anyone else knowing about them. Any helpful tip on that? Haha

    I'm wondering how to do step 4 when it comes to my ex husband who physically abused me and almost killed me in horrible ways through torture choking and knives. I was blamed for every bit of the abuse.

    I hope you are getting good help and love in your life Samantha. My daughter had a similar relationship. She was constantly choked and cut by the bastard . My wife won't let me 'sort'him out because she says I'll end up in gaol and our other children need me. God help him if I bump into him by accident . Police were useless .

    If I keep overtrusting people and they betray me, can you explain how this is my fault. Like I'm getting comfort from them so it's selfish?

    Setting expectations on others for me is a setup for failure/resentment. There is a certain power and feeling with being justifiable anger or letdown. So unfortunately my part in over trusting people and being betrayed is hanging on to those hurt feelings. I’m certainly entitled to my emotions and have valid response to getting burned, it becomes about me if I revisit or “re feel/ resent) this long after the event. For me I give myself an allowed time, days or minutes to feel a certain way, the DO something else. I’m unable to outthink this, I have to pick up the phone, go to meeting, clean something ect.

    There are 8 columns for step 4 resentments there is no worksheet and more than just 4 columns in the Big Book, whoever made this did not read the Big Book. Step 4 instructions are clearly laid out.
