Tradition Three Checklist
The only requirement for AA membership is a desire to stop drinking. 1. In my mind, do I prejudge some new AA members as losers? 2. Is there some kind of alcoholic whom I privately do not want in my AA group? 3. Do I set myself up as a judge of whether a newcomer is sincere or phony? 4. Do I let language, religion (or lack of it), race, education, age, or other such things interfere with my carrying the message. 5. Am I overimpressed by a celebrity. By a doctor, a clergyman, an ex-convict? Or can I just treat this new member simply and naturally as one more sick human, like the rest of us? 6.When someone turns up at AA needing information or help (even if he can't ask for it outloud), does it really matter to me what he does for a living? What his domestic arrangements are? Whether he had been to AA before? What his other problems are? (I always say I have a desire to stop using because I used alcohol the same way I did pills, men, food work, etc.) Traditions Checklist from the AA Grapevine
