From "Today, It's My Choice:"

"With the realization and acceptance that I had
played a part in the way my life had turned out
came a dramatic change in my outlook. It was
at this point that the A.A. program began to
work for me. In the past I had always blamed
others, either God or other people, for my
circumstances. I never felt that I had a choice
in altering my life. My decisions had been based
on fear, pride, or ego. As a result, those
decisions led me down a path of self-destruction.
Today I try to allow my God to guide me on
the road to sanity. I am responsible for my
action -- or inaction -- whatever the
consequences may be."
