In the Big Book, we’re told flat-out: “Selfishness—self-centeredness! That, we think, is the root of our troubles.”
Most of us didn’t get sober because we were living selfless lives. We got sober because our self-will ran straight into a brick wall — and took everyone around us with it.
Today we dig into the truth that no alcoholic likes to face: We cause most of our own pain.
Self-will. Fear. Control. Expectations.
When we’re in self, everything hurts. When we’re in God, everything changes.
In this episode we explore: • How self-centered fear drives our worst decisions • Why selfishness blocks spiritual growth • The freedom that comes from service and humility • Why “getting out of self” is the fastest path to serenity
When we stop making everything about us, life gets a whole lot cleaner.
