As Bill Sees It
Morning Thoughts, p.243
On awakening, let us think about the twenty-four hours ahead.
We ask HP to direct our thinking, especially asking that it be
divorced from self-pity and from dishonest or self-seeking
motives. Free of these, we can employ our mental faculties with
assurance, for HP gave us brains to use. Our thought-life will be
on a higher plane when our thinking begins to be cleared of wrong
motives.
If we have determined which of two courses to take, we ask HP for
inspiration, an intuitive thought, or a decision. Then we relax and
take it easy, and we are often surprised how the right answers come
after we have tried this for a while.
We usually conclude our meditation with a prayer that we be shown
all through the day what our next step is to be, asking especially
for freedom from damaging self-will.
Alcoholics Anonymous, pp. 86,87
