My goals for the rest of this year :
1. Stay Sober
2. Become 100% debt free
3. Continue to learn and grow
4. Find meaningful employment
As you see sobriety is at the top of this list for me. With out sobriety I cannot reach any of my other goals. The amount of money that I would spend on alcohol and alcohol related entertainment make it very hard to save money, or pay off debt. When I am drinking am I really able to learn and grow as an individual? Nope... And lastly when I drink I have a hard time finding the energy and drive to find and hold a meaningful job.
Sobriety has a trickle down effect on your life. It won't happen after a day, a week, or a month... But when you are able to seriously put down the bottle and begin working to improve your life, good things happen!
Discussion Question : In what ways has sobriety benefited your life?
Very cool idea.
ReplyDeleteAs the son of a recovering alcoholic and a finance nerd this is a great idea! Best of luck to you and I look forward to checking in on your progress.
I am a business owner who slowly let his business and family decline because of my alcohol use. I am trying to stop.
ReplyDeleteIt's great that you recognize one of the problems. Now get about the business of getting better. You have many decisions to make and your life good or bad will be a direct result of your own decisions. You don't have to do this on your own, reach out to others for a hand. Best wishes to you and your family!
