Tools Of Underearners Anonymous

The Tools of Underearners Anonymous:


What are tools are you currently using?


1. Time Recording – We must be conscious of how we spend our time. We keep a written record to increase awareness and support our focus on goals and the actions required to achieve them.

2. Meetings – We attend UA meetings regularly to share our experience, strength, and hope in order to help ourselves and others recover from underearning.

3. Sponsorship – We actively seek sponsorship with someone who has worked the Twelve Steps in UA and is willing to guide us in our recovery.
4. Possession Consciousness – We routinely discard what no longer serves us in order to foster a belief that life is plentiful and that we will be able to provide ourselves with what we need.
5. Service – Giving service is vital to our recovery. It is through service to others, and to the Fellowship, that we keep what has been so generously given to us.

6. Goals Pages – We set goals for all aspects of our lives, write them down, measure our progress and reward achievement.

7. Action Meetings – We organize action meetings with other UA members to discuss our earning concerns and to generate actions that will bring more prosperity into our lives.

8. Action Partner – We connect regularly with action partners regarding earning concerns in order to provide each other with accountability, continuity, and support.

9. Solvency – We do not debt one day at a time. Debting leads to underearning.

10. Communication – We contact other UA members to seek support, to diminish isolation, and to reinforce our commitments to action.  

11. Literature – We read Twelve-Step literature to strengthen our understanding of compulsive disease and the process of recovery.

12. Savings – Saving money demonstrates faith in the future and acceptance of the fact that money is a tool vital to our prosperous vision. We create and follow a savings plan on whatever scale we are able.

Ours is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other, that we may solve our common problem and help others to recover from compulsive underearning. 

The only requirement for membership is the desire to stop underearning. There are no dues or fees; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. 

UA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization, or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any causes.
Our primary purpose is to stop compulsive underearning, one day at a time, and to help other underearners do the same.


We look forward to seeing you soon!

Weekly Orange U.A. Meeting Highlights: Aug 6, 2014

Here are the highlights from the monthly Wednesday Step Study meeting at St. Matthews Church in Orange, CA.


 Reading:  Big Book 72-75   
Step 5:  " Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs."

Question of the Day:
 How Can I Prepare And Become Willing To Share My Inventory With Another Human Being?
How Will I Choose That Person?

Here were some reflections this blogger related to:

·        Focus on the benefits that come from sharing.
·        Realize sharing with another is a chance to understand who I am.
·        I can share my inventory with a person of the cloth or a stranger on a bus.
·        Side effects of working my program will be a sudden popping sound – that is my head coming out of my rear end.
