Focus on what you have to gain

I am 5 days sober and it has helped me to reframe my addiction. Taking away the power from alcohol and taking the power back in my life. Instead of letting it victimize me it is something I simply outgrew and it doesnt fit into my future goals for myself.

That is an article that I read every morning to remind me of the great things I have to gain by not drinking.

It’s helps me stay focused on the things I have to gain rather than focusing on the things I will be giving up.

I hope it helps you too!

Good morning from Aus…
Day fifteen for me, and I’m really getting stronger within my mind.
That voice that is telling me I really should pop into the BWS and get some :wine_glass: is now being challenged by a second voice that helps me to defeat the one that is set to self destruct.
I want to find the old me again…
