When you talk to another alcoholic, they can calm you down, they can get you on the right track.
Ever felt like you're trying to control everything, only to find it all slipping through your fingers? In this episode of THEUDRCAST, Bill Ward tackles the tricky terrain of Step 3 in the recovery journey. Bill dives into the idea that a life driven by self-will is bound for chaos and how crucial it is to 'turn it over' to a higher power.
Imagine trying to direct a play where you're not just the actor but also the director, stage manager, and even the lighting technician. It sounds exhausting, right? Bill explains how this kind of self-centered approach leads to selfishness and ultimately fuels addiction. He stresses that being 'convinced' means having no doubts about this truth. With personal stories and practical advice, Bill makes the abstract concept of surrendering control relatable and actionable.
He also highlights the importance of following directions and the often painful but necessary process of personal reconstruction. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. It's not just about turning over self-will; it's about finding peace and a path to true recovery.
