Assignment Higher Power: "The solution to thought-addiction or the chatter of the monkey mind, being constantly overwhelmed by emotional chatter is simple. Give up all unhealthy reliance upon intellect that thoughts always encourage. Instead place reliance upon God gifted, intuition. It lies in that wonderful word in Step Ten: “WATCH”.

Just watch and observe, separating from thoughts, never stuffing emotions, seeing that they come from somewhere dark, intelligently designed to snare us into their endless looping, out of conscious contact with God - and are not originating in us. It is that simple. The ‘ability’ to do this comes through Step Eleven when it is practiced daily."
