Tradition Eleven Checklist

by Mark on November 7th, 2008

As usual, always worthy of consideration, any day, any time, imho.

From Silkworth.net;

Tradition Eleven: Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion; we need always maintain personal anonymity at the level of press, radio, and films.

  • Do I sometimes promote AA so fanatically that I make it seem unattractive?
  • Am I always careful to keep the confidences reposed in me as an AA member?
  • Am I careful about throwing AA names around – even within the Fellowship?
  • Am I ashamed of being a recovered, or recovering, alcoholic?
  • What would AA be like if we were not guided by the ideas in Tradition Eleven? Where would I be?
  • Is my sobriety attractive enough that a sick drunk would want such a quality for himself?

Hmmmmm???

    Anonymity is crucial to the confidentiality which protects the group and the people connected to the group
