Accurate Self-Appraisal
Must A.A.'s spend most of their waking hours drearily rehashing their sins
of omission or commission? Well, hardly. The emphasis on inventory is
heavy only because a great many of us have never really acquired the habit
of accurate self-appraisal. Once this healthy practice has become grooved,
it will be so interesting and profitable that the time it takes won't be missed.
For these minutes and sometimes hours spent in self-examination are bound
to make all the other hours of our day better and happier."
