A is for Aware. I am aware that I am the problem and it isn't my partner, my family, and/or my addictions (which can make themselves known on a daily basis). When I work my program, I can find and live in the solution.

I is for Inside. This is an inward journey. I can fix the outside, but if I don't change the inside, I stay the same and continue to act out in addictive behavior.
