Autan,

I understand the whole motivation thing. In the end, drinking robbed me of any drive. I assumed that I'd be recharged once I stopped drinking, but I haven't experienced that yet. Instead I seem to just be floating along -- getting just the barest minimum done (if that). As others have said, I think it's important in these early stages (I'm just on day 19) to focus on staying sober. I trust that you -- and I hope that I -- will become revitalized in due time. Also as others have commented, I have found your posts to be quite inspirational. It shows that you are immersed and active in achieving and sustaining your sobriety. Becoming so involved in anything can be draining. Eventually, though, it will become relatively automatic and you'll have mental energy for other pursuits.

Best,
ODog
