MY
ANSWERS TO COME SOON
AL
TRADITION ELEVEN-CHECK LIST
Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather then promotion;
we need always maintain personal anonymity at the level of press, radio, and
films.
1. Do I sometimes promote AA so fanatically that I make it seem
unattractive?
2. Am I always careful to keep the confidences reposed in me as an
AA member?
3. Am I careful about throwing AA names around - even within the
Fellowship?
4. Am I ashamed of being a recovered, or recovering, alcoholic?
5. What would AA be like if we were not guided by the ideas in
Tradition eleven? Where would I be?
6. Is my AA sobriety attractive enough that a sick drunk would
want such a quality for himself?
