My sponsor suggested that for me a good starting point
would simply be recognition of the fact
that I had failed in running the world --
in short, acceptance of the fact that I was not God.
He also suggested that I might try occasionally
to act as if I believed,
Somewhere I had heard that it is easier
to act yourself into a new way of thinking
than to think your way into a new way of acting,
and this made sense in the context of "acting as if."
Hold your face up to the Light,
even though for the moment you do not see.
A B C = Acceptance, Belief, Change.
