Another weapon in the armoury!

[satori]

Hi Folks,

Just discovered another trick to make use of!

I normally go to the gym with a couple of mates two or three times a week - typically it used to involve going in the evening, and then going for a drink afterwards (to "rehydrate!"). That often led on to me coming home and carrying on untill I was rehydrated as a newt!!

Now we have rearranged things so that we go in the morning.
If I need to get up at 5:30 to be at the gym for 6am it is a strong incentive for me to stay sober and get a good night's sleep.

May not work for everyone. But it's helping me! The simplest changes to routine can make all the difference!

Have good day demon slaying!

Satori, sounds like a great plan...the best thing about working out in the morning is that you reep the benefits all day long!

Hi guys,

Yep - none of this stuff is rocket science - but it just goes to show how a little bit of distance from a problem can help you see more clearly.

I had just got into a routine which revolved around alcohol and was either a) drinking or b) hung over so I couldn't see the wood for the trees.

After I had made the decision that things had to change, it became clear that a lot of my habits were just that, habit!
My life is not cast in stone, I can change things to make it better!! Yay!!

I am still on track, and althought I still want to drink quite badly on occasion, I also remember how bad things can get if I do go back to my old ways.

Right now I want NOT to go back there MORE than I want to drink.
Let's hope I can keep it that way.



Have a good day

Satori
