when I first got sober, they told me to make 100 meetings in 100 days, since I was actually unemployable at the time anyways I went to more like 150 0r more in that time frame and it definitely was the meetings at that time because that is what I needed most. I was not in any condition to really take many of the steps. Since those days I have found that working your program at all times is what is important whether it be steps or meetings you do whatever you need to do to maintain your sobriety. For the last few years it has been mainly steps for me, not a lot of meetings but do make them when necessary, sometimes when I feel a need but mostly I try to go before I feel the need for one, by doing so I rarely feel the need for one.
So the best answer I can come up with to the question it is really both acts used in a balance that works for your program
