Many addicted people are expert at ‘getting away with things.’ For example, blaming others for our situation is usually a form of dishonesty to ourselves because we cannot face the reality that we are responsible for the choices we make. Denial of the severity of our illness is another example. Unless we can get into the habit of being rigorously honest with ourselves in every way, then no amount of courage or positive action is going to help us stay sober because we will be starting from a position of unreality. Will I be honest today in all my affairs?
