It's not about perfection, it's not about arriving at a destination. It operates on the unconscious assumption that it, the ego, can never be stopped. It takes for granted its right to go ahead and in this respect, has no expectation of being stopped and no capacity to adjust to that eventuality.
Ever wondered how anonymity plays a role in taming the ego during recovery? Lisa from '2 Sober Chicks' brings you another insightful episode as she reads from the Harry Tiebout Papers. This time, she focuses on 'Anonymity: the Ego Reducer', a talk presented at the 1955 AA International Convention. Harry Tiebout, a psychiatrist and board member of Alcoholics Anonymous, had a profound understanding of addiction and recovery.
Lisa unpacks his observations on the ego, the importance of surrender, and the spiritual transformation that takes place in recovery. She emphasizes that the journey isn't about achieving perfection but about committing to daily self-improvement and discipline. This episode is packed with valuable takeaways on the AA 12 Steps, the significance of humility, and the role of community support in sobriety. If you're looking to deepen your understanding of these themes, this episode is a treasure trove of wisdom.
