Accepting that this is a journey to be experienced and not a finite destination where everything is miraculously better is where your power lies.

I'll be transparent in that I wasn't looking for a quick fix to my sobriety because, deep down, I didn't even want to be sober before hitting my personal rock bottom of detox.

But there are other things in life that I wanted a quick fix for - dealing with hard emotions, hitting consistent 5-figure months, and finding the love of my life.

NONE of the above happened overnight, and I don't even have a love of my life yet. I know he's out there, but I'm trusting the timing of how my life is unfolding. It hasn't let me down yet.

We're often looking for that miracle cure to "fix" whatever is going wrong in our lives or to get us to where we want to be, but chances are it's not out there. And why would you want a quick fix anyway? There's no growth in that. There's no learning.

The easy way doesn't allow you to appreciate the journey and all you've done to get to where you desire to be.

What if you started looking at the struggle as a learning experience?

What if you accepted there is no quick fix but only consistent efforts to get you to where you want to be?

If you're fighting and resisting, I can tell you that you're making it a lot harder on yourself than it needs to be.

We've got 28 more days in 2021. How are you going to use that time?

Accepting that there will be some hard days, especially at the beginning? Or resisting and making it as if there's something wrong with you for not being able to ingest a chemically addictive substance in "moderation"?

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOU.

This is what alcohol is set up to do - alter our brain chemistry. That's why the drink responsibly slogan from Big Alcohol is utter bullshit.

Now let go of the fight and watch how much easier it becomes.
