Yeah Baby!!

That ah-huh moment sure is sweet. Maybe you had one earlier. If not, then this may not be your last. Those moments where suddenly you realize it's not that bad, or you notice that you've been feeling really good lately, or you notice that you actually don't want to drink vs can't drink.

Those ah-huh moments can be very powerful and supply you with enough momentum to last a days, weeks, months.

You may recall early on noticing a few things that motivates you to continue...things that have you strength to go one more hour or one more day.

As time goes on, those moments of clarity or appreciation motivates you to go one more week or one more month.

I guess what I'm trying to say is at some point you realize you ARE doing better instead of "I Can do better" .

I'm 10months sober and I still have those Ah-huh moments. I still suddenly become awes of how much better I AM doing. It motivates me to go another 10months.
