In the Big Book, on page 17, the pioneers' say, "The tremendous fact for every one of us is that we have discovered a common solution. We have a way out on which we can absolutely agree, and upon which we can join in brotherly and harmonious action. This is the great news this book carries to those who suffer from alcoholism [as well as from other problems and behaviors]."
On page 29, they go on to say that, "Further on [in the Big Book], clear-cut directions are given showing how we recovered." On page 58, they also say that, "Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path."
In other words, we focus on the founders "common solution", by "thoroughly" following their "clear-cut directions" to work all Twelve Steps of our program of recovery.
