It can be a strong incentive. Let it be just that. Listen to that voice that is commanding you to give this everything you've got.
Ultimately the journey has been even more rewarding than I thought it would be. It hasn't been completely smooth sailing but at least I know I've given it my best (sober) shot. The doors that opened were kind of different from what I expected and I've matured so much along the way. I'll NEVER regret the effort I put into cleaning up for that move.
All the best, stay focussed.

Thank you so much for this - it’s really inspirational
I really hope this opens new doors for me too or windows! Or chimneys! This to me is the most important thing I’ve ever done and I know I would regret it forever if I didn’t give it my best sober shot - thank you x
