JU JITSU YOUR PROBLEMS W/ 'CONTRARY ACTION' -

"The basic
principles of [the
12 Steps] were bor-
rowed mainly from the
fields of religion and med-
icine, though some ideas
upon which success fin-
ally depended were the
result of noting the be-
havior and needs of
the Fellowship it-
self." (12 & 12,
p. 16)




BUT IT MIGHT TAKE UP TO 10 YEARS JUST TO MASTER THE BASICS -

"When our
lives seem to
be falling apart,
we reapply our-
selves to the basics
of the ... program. We
stay in close contact with
our sponsor, work the steps,
and go to meetings. We
surrender again, know-
ing that victory lies
in the admission
of defeat." (It
Works, How & 
Why, p.
10)




"In your
training, do
not be in a hurry,
for it takes a mini-
mum of ten years to
master the basics and
advance to the first rung
- you must continue to
train daily with your
friends and students
and progress
together in
the Art of
Peace."

- Morihei Ueshiba (1883 - 1996) Japanese founder of the martial art of Aikido
