Listen Notes
Today I started off the show recapping a long weekend with my kids and discussing how quickly they have reverted back to wanting to spend time with me again.
I also discussed an upcoming episode on The 5 Second Rule by Mel Robbins. I am not quite ready to do a full podcast yet, but I discussed how I am already using the tool to combat my procrastination issue.
Different Levels Different Devils
The main topic of today’s podcast is talking about how we all have different devils at the level we are at in sobriety. My Levels and devils have been:
- 3 years ago – adding more and more HH’s to my week
- 2 years ago – stopping on the way home to pick up a bottle
- 1 year ago – hiding bottles in the garage
- 9mos ago – not admitting I was an alcoholic and needed to go to treatment
- 8mos ago – thinking I was cured getting out of treatment
- 7mos ago – not wanting to go to meetings
- 6mos ago – not wanting to get a sponsor
- 5mos ago – not wanting to do the steps
- today – falling into the trap that “I got this”
I also discussed relapses along the way and finding the courage to get back up and not let them define me.
What level are you at and what devils are you dealing with?
