    Tim M- following a clear cut set of directions!

    Tim grew up in a nice town but on the modest side, surrounded by a family where drinking was the norm. A high school athlete with drive and determination, he went on to build a successful business of his own. But behind the success, years of drinking eventually led him to a hospital bed and a moment of reckoning. In Alcoholics Anonymous, Tim found a fellowship that guided him toward a solution through the clear-cut directions in the Big Book. Today, he shares how his greatest responsibility—and his greatest joy—has become helping others the same way he was helped.
