This reminds me of what I heard a long-timer share many years ago, "If you are fearful to do Step Four, go back to Step Three and find faith." It is a fearless inventory.

Heard another long timer, over 60 years now, who said, "The fourth Step is just in today and from your perspective in today. You don't have to write down how many times you stole, just recognize that you are a thief. You don't have to write down all the times you cursed someone out, manipulated them, or used them, just recognize that you are a user, not a giver."

For me, what ever memory pops into my head, that I had forgotten or buried so deep that it couldn't get past my barriers, I apply the Steps 4-9.
