AA Thought for the Day

Making the Approach
That the man who is making the approach has had the same difficulty, that he
obviously knows what he is talking about, that his whole deportment shouts at
the new prospect that he is a man with a real answer, that he has no attitude of
Holier Than Thou, nothing whatever except the sincere desire to be helpful; that
there are no fees to pay, no axes to grind, no people to please, no lectures to
be endured—these are the conditions we have found most effective.
- Alcoholics Anonymous, (There Is A Solution) pp. 18 - 19
