Wanting to want it is a good start.
What changed everything for me was CHOOSING to want it.
I began to take actions that would support that choosing, that wanting. And eventually, the wanting to want - and even the WANTING, transformed into CHOOSING.
Wanting something implies "someday"
CHOOSING TO HAVE something, implies NOW.
And when we re-focus from SOMEDAY to NOW - that's when things happen.
You can WANT to 'get in shape'.
But if you CHOOSE to get in shape, go to the gym and pick up weights and get on the treadmill - YOU ARE GETTING IN SHAPE.
It's the same with sobriety. We can want it until we are blue in the face - or dead from addiction. But until we CHOOSE and we ACT - wanting gets us absolutely noplace.
