F*ck forever.
Life is happening now.
Focusing on FOREVER has your mind spinning in a future out of your control.
Without alcohol your first time out on the water this summer, your birthday and back yard bbq’s.
Forever creates a void in your mind.
An empty space where alcohol use to occupy.
You can’t even fathom it.
It doesn’t make sense.
Alcohol is a grain of sand in the scheme of life.
But with a mind FULL of to drink or not drink, alcohol feels like a boulder.
In the beginning, all you can focus on is what will be missing.
So start here instead:
You know what the morning will feel like if you don’t drink.
Take your mind to 12 hours from now. Not next year.
I wish I would have drank last night, (said no one ever).
Feel the freedom of waking up refreshed and order an iced tea.
Sit in the pride of doing something different.
Learn the 3 reasons why I don't let my clients use the word FOREVER in our coaching and what to do when your mind takes you to a future nostalgic moment.
Changing your relationship to alcohol begins with more awareness. Lasting change is created with a new perspective.
Tracking your urges/cravings to drink will allow you to experience your relationship to alcohol with more neutrality.
