I'm just a regular ol guy- the "spiritual" stuff doesn't work for me, it never has. I need to do something tangible to get past the urge to drink. It's pretty plain and simple to me:
Go for a walk/run/bike ride
Go into the office to do work
Yard work, home maintenance stuff
I figure all 3 things are actions that move SOME part of my life forward and keep me busy for a bit.
