In Debtors Anonymous (D.A.), we come together to recover from the challenges of compulsive debting.
Through the Twelve Steps and the Twelve Tools of D.A., we discover a new way of living, free from the fear and chaos that debt brings.
As we work the program, these transformative promises begin to unfold in our lives:
- Where once we felt despair, we will experience a newfound hope.
- Clarity will replace vagueness. Confidence and intuition will replace confusion and chaos. We will live engaged lives, make decisions that best meet our needs, and become the people we were meant to be.
- We will live within our means, yet our means will not define us.
- We will begin to live a prosperous life, unencumbered by fear, worry, resentment, or debt.
- We will realize that we are enough; we will value ourselves and our contributions.
- Isolation will give way to fellowship; faith will replace fear.
- We will recognize that there is enough; our resources will be generous, and we will share them with others and with D.A.
- We will cease to compare ourselves to others; jealousy and envy will fade.
- Acceptance and gratitude will replace regret, self-pity, and longing.
- We will no longer fear the truth; we will move from hiding in denial to living in reality.
- Honesty will guide our actions toward a rich life filled with meaning and purpose.
- We will recognize a Power Greater than ourselves as the source of our abundance. We will ask for help and guidance and have faith that it will come.
These promises represent the incredible gifts that recovery through Debtors Anonymous can bring.
By working this program with integrity and commitment, one day at a time, a life of prosperity, serenity, and hope is possible for all.
