Step 10 worksheet — the daily inventory

Step 10 asks you to keep taking inventory as you go, and to put things right promptly rather than storing them up.

Steps 4 through 9 clear the backlog. Step 10 is what stops a new one forming. It is meant to be short — a nightly page you actually complete beats a thorough one you abandon by Friday.

Tonight

Where was I resentful, afraid, dishonest, or self-seeking?	What was my part?	What do I owe, and to whom?

The other half

A review that only records failures turns into a nightly punishment and gets dropped within two weeks.

What did I do well today?

Who did I help?

What am I grateful for that I would have missed a year ago?

Promptly

Is there an amends I need to make tomorrow? To whom, and what will I say?

Is there anything here I should tell my sponsor rather than carry?
