When I am taking Step Six, I have already admitted my character defects in Step Five.
If I am still scared of my defects, something has gone wrong in Step Five.
All defects are the same. There are no big defects or small defects. All defects are incorrect beliefs, thoughts, or behaviours.
The answer to all is to believe the right thing, think the right thing, and do the right thing.
When I do the right thing, I am refraining from doing all of the wrong things, whether they are big or small.
If I am working when I am at work, I am not robbing a bank, and I am not eating a cake.
Only something that exists can be big or small.
The easiest thing to do is to give up all character defects at once and instead decide to serve God.
