Willingness. I find that on a daily basis I have to become willing to allow God to remove my defects of character. Sometimes the willingness is not there. I still get angry and willful. In order to be sincere about my sobriety I had to let go of old ideas.
The change is this: where I used to say “No! Never!” I now find myself investigating why I say no and never. I have become willing to change a little; compromise, agree to disagree, or hear the other side. I also see where I was wrong and become willing to change my attitude.
Step Six is about sincerity. Step Six is about acceptance. Step Six is about release.
