If this is the first time you have taken a good hard look at this Step I hope you are as anxious to get this done as I was. So much of the hard work has already been completed. We just finished a very emotionally, spiritually and mentally exhaustive exercise in Step Four. In Step Five, we released to God and to another human being the things we uncovered in Step Four. We are beginning to further identify things that we uncovered, and we are increasing our readiness and eagerness to another level.
The defects are the target of this Step and entirely is the degree by which we are ready to remove them. I invite you to look at the definitions of these words to see how they resonate with you.
Entirely: wholly or fully, completely or unreservedly, solely or exclusively. Defects: a shortcoming, fault, or imperfection, lack or want, especially of something essential to perfection or completeness, deficiency.
I wish you well in the phase of your recovery.

Robert is the Recovery Guy. Getting clean and sober on April 25, 1986 has given me the insight and practical skill set to not only stay sober, but to also re-invent myself to the person I always wanted to become. Showing others how to do this is my life goal.
