If I could only stay this focused in the days,weeks,months ahead I would be fine.
Meetings will help you stay focused, and coming here on a regular basis will too. Early on I used to make very detailed daily "plans" of what I was going to do every day, right down to the hour. Even if I was just going to clean the kitchen or read a book, I wrote it down. If you can eliminate as much Idle time as possible it really helps keeping the cravings and thoughts of drinking at bay. Making sure you eat/drink well and get enough rest is also very important.
