With all due respect and admiration for those who are truly recovering addicts, here's a light-hearted bit that I put together (actually, part of an AU class proposal that was not accepted) for AutoCAD Addiction... the cure for which, of course, is Revit. :)
--
Step 1 - We admitted we were powerless over our addiction - that our lives had become unmanageable
Step 2 - Came to believe that a power greater than AutoCAD could restore us to sanity
Step 3 - Made a decision to turn our design and drafting over to the care of Revit as we understood it
Step 4 - Made a searching and fearless inventory of our processes and standards
Step 5 - Admitted to our boss, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of the shortcomings of our current system
Step 6 – We are entirely ready to have a migration to Revit remove all these defects
Step 7 – We humbly configured Revit to remove these shortcomings
Step 8 – We made a list of all projects we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all
Step 9 – We made direct amends to such projects wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others
Step 10 – We continue to take inventory of our Revit setup, and when something is found to be wrong, promptly admit it and improve upon it
Step 11 – We seek through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with a better BIM as we understand it, searching only for knowledge of BIM and the ability to carry it out
Step 12 - Having had an awakening as the result of these steps, we try to carry this message to other addicts, and to practice these principles in all our affairs
