This is the daily morning routine. It is not optional on good days only — the whole point is that it happens on every day, including the ones when it feels least necessary.
If you know you are going to drink today: Go immediately to a meeting and share using the keywords "Burning Desire." Call your sponsor at the same time. Do not wait.

Call your sponsor
Let them know the answers to four questions:
- Did we pick up a white chip yesterday?
- Which meeting are we attending today — or why are we choosing not to attend?
- What are we doing today to work toward completing our current step?
- Do we need to be called back, or is a voicemail sufficient?
- Attend a meeting with your sponsor twice a week Not every meeting needs to be with your sponsor, but two per week together is the target.
