Step 8 // List

ONLINE

Willingness = prepare to repair relationships

The Step: Make a list of all persons we harmed, and become willing to make amends.

Game theory: This is mapping the network. Harm breaks trust and lowers future cooperation. Step 8 identifies where the trust got damaged.

SCIENCE: why it helps

• Clarity: naming it reduces denial and distortion.

• Less rumination: lists turn chaos into a plan.

• Future protection: willingness reduces repeat harm patterns.

Plain terms: “I stop pretending it didn’t affect people. I write it down and get willing to do the next right thing.”
