Your Drinking is a One Way Street

  • Summary

    If your drinking habit has morphed into something you are no longer comfortable with, and you’ve considered taking action to cut back (or perhaps you’ve already tried some breaks or other approaches), I’d like to offer you one powerful insight which was a game-changer for me back when I was struggling with my own drinking habit.

    The idea is this: once you cross a certain threshold with your drinking habit, you can never go back. Meaning, the days in your past where you could enjoy the proverbial “glass of wine with dinner” and then easily stop, or when you could knock back a pint or two with your friends at the pub and then call it a night…more than likely those days are gone and they’re never coming back.

    Many of us hold on to a futile hope that we can squeeze the toothpaste back into the tube, and somehow turn back the clock on our drinking habit to where it used to be (or maybe through brute force, make it look like someone else’s “moderate” consumption level). But clinging to that hope is a path toward frustration, disappointment and it ultimately just delays your ability to truly solve this problem in your life.

    While it may be disappointing to come to terms with this concept…in truth it is incredibly liberating. Because it forces you to either accept your drinking habit “as is” understanding full well that it will probably worsen over time (since that is the path you’ve already been traveling). OR you can commit to giving a sincere attempt at an alcohol-free lifestyle to see how you like it, knowing that there really is no third alternative path.

    In today’s episode we unpack this idea and explore why ignoring it can become a huge risk to everything that matters to you most…
