Will power is almost never enough. Long term sobriety is about changing who we were into who we want to be. I know for myself at 6.5 years sober Im fully capable of drinking again. So each day I work on myself. I work on my spirituality, I work on my relationships, I work on my demons, I work on understanding my addictions, I work on my physical health.

Many think that a good life is the result of sobriety. I disagree. Sobriety is the result of a life well lead.

I can say with certainty that if I'm not moving forward I'm moving backwards
