“We don’t struggle. We are often surprised how the right answers come after we have tried this for a while.” (Page 86, Big Book)
I recently heard someone saying they were ‘struggling’ with a passage in the Big Book.
The Big Book actually suggests I should not struggle.
My job when I find myself struggling with a passage is this:
- Stop struggling
- Accept the proposition
- Put it into practice
- Try this for a while
This resolves matters.
