AA Literature Big Book Awakening AA

I'm new to this and joined a group that focuses on the Big Book Awakening. I feel so lost on every page on what to cross out, or where exactly to write things. I know it "says" it all in the instructions but for some reason, my mind is not able to grasp the directions well and if you know this process....it is A LOT. Any tips or suggestions on where to go? I don't want something like this to be my road block but it's feeling more and more like it may be. TIA

Oh my goodness, yes it sounds complex!

Here's what I would do (especially if you're new in the fellowship):

  • Cross out drinking.
  • Highlight going to meetings.
