STEPS

1. We admitted we were powerless over alcohol/drugs/sex, and that our lives have become unmanageable. Principles - Honesty and Acceptance
2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. Principle - Hope
3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood God. Principle - Faith
4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. Principles - Action and Courage
5. Admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. Principle - Integrity
6. Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character. Principle - Willingness
7. Humbly asked God to remove our shortcomings. Principle - Humility
8. Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all. Principle - Brotherly love
9. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. Principle - Justice
10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. Principle - Perseverance
11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood God, praying only for knowledge of Gods will for us and the power to carry that out. Principle - Spirituality
12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we carried this message to others who game excessively and practiced these principles in all our affairs. Principle - Service
