Great job on day 4
Any thoughts about future alcohol consumption come from the AV , the addiction itself trying to reinstate itself. The best mindset to adopt to combat those kinds of thoughts is to stay present, use the idea that we can only actually 'be' and act in the immediate present , the now.
Like literally right now. Right now my resolve in my decision to not drink is not in question, I right now will not act to put a drink in my mouth. And you know what, my resolve in this 'now' is just as strong. A week , month or year in the future has no bearing on how I will act Now. Carry the resolve through all the Nows I will experience and I will be in that future now with the same resolve.
Maybe a little wonky mindset to explain and think through, but battling the AV is really a mind game in a good way and a very doable way.
You got through all the Nows that made up the last days , just keep that resolve going forward , let all those Nows add up. You got this, stay in the now, and keep trucking , the Nows that will be 2018 can't affect tonight or tomorrow , no need to worry about them now, yeah?
