Where am I at? mulderfan's comment about step 4 in the 12 step program sent me looking for an inventory for myself. I happen to agree with mulderfan that the 12 step program can be tweaked to meet different problems to overcome. So I went looking for 12 step inventory, there are a bunch out there...
Some that I found interesting:

This is only from the first page of links. There are a lot of solutions available.

What other organizations are discovering is this basic recipe for alcoholics also works for other addictions and problems.
****Important Reminder from mulderfan: Important reminder! The 4th Step is not about beating yourself up, it's about BUILDING yourself up!
This
is a bit cynical, but I often say, "There's no need to waste time
beating yourself up when there's a whole world out there just waiting to
do it for you."
From me: Negative tapes may try to shout out their agenda and drown out the positive things I do. This assessment is to evaluate where I am at right now, good, bad, and indifferent.
