Question 1: Take the following scenario. A person tells you that they have a glass of wine every night with dinner and it’s not a problem except that every few months they get drunk. They are belligerent when asked “Do you think that glass of wine every day may have something to do with you getting drunk?”. How would you respond? Are you going to say point blank, “You have a belligerent attitude?” Or will you paraphrase back to the person what you are hearing to help them unload and share? How are you going to handle a belligerent person? Question 2: Draw a triangle on a piece of paper like the example given. Go to meditation and ask God, what am I still belligerent about? Take from your own life something you are belligerent about and apply the triangle to it working from top to bottom. Examine the fears behind the belligerence. Question 3: Write about what you are doing for yourself when you find something you are unwilling to do. How are treating yourself? Question 4: What is your philosophy today? a) Do you believe man can do all things on his own? b) that man can do all things but needs the help of a higher power? or c) are you just coming out of belligerence with the attitude that “I hear that I need a Higher Power but I am just not there yet.” Question 5: Rewrite in your own words the 2nd paragraph of step 2. How would you put this paragraph to someone just coming out from belligerence who says they have a little bit of willingness to be willing? Question 6: a) Create an action plan for yourself. b) What type of gentle action plan would you give to a sponsee?
