All The Rave

In this episode, I connect the dots between substance abuse and self rejection. A lot of us don’t even realize that our use of substances is a band-aid for rejecting different parts of your identity. 

If you decided to sit with yourself fully, and accept every single part, what would your life look like ?

Do you truly know yourself? 

Who are you without drugs and alcohol? 

In this episode, I rant about how so many of us are using escapism instead of figuring out how to actually accept and love ourselves wholeheartedly.

The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy 

It’s about the small steps that are completed consistently over time that will create a radical difference. 

“Commitment is doing the thing you said you were going to do long after the mood you said it in has left you.” p. 109

Main Takeaways

Responsibility and Ownership 

“You hold the power. Everything is up to you. You’re responsible for everything you do or don’t do, and how you respond to what’s done to you.” p. 29

Inertia and Momentum 

Objects at rest tend to stay at rest unless acted on by an outside force. Objects in motion tend to stay in motion, unless something stops their momentum. 

Newton’s first law of inertia applied to this concept is about making new choices and then building that momentum over time. 

Routines and Action Plans 

Set yourself up for success ahead of time. 

“The key to becoming world class in your endeavors is to build your performance around world-class routines. It can be difficult, even futile, to predict or control what will show up in the middle of your workday. But you can almost always control how your day starts and ends.” p. 102

Whatever we’re doing when it relates to New Year resolutions, let’s operate from self awareness and move with intention towards fulfillment. 

When you reclaim your resolutions focusing on self love, everything falls into place naturally. 

Self love is intentional self care, leading you towards fulfillment.  

Recognize the season you’re in and let go of the need for social validation.  

When you decide to move forward, intentionally showing up for yourself every day, the action steps, goals, and accomplishments come into alignment. 

Focus on alignment more than the reward and results alone.

Today as I celebrate three years sober, I  reflect on the milestones and the trials that made me stronger. What I didn’t know at the time was that this initial decision would take three initial years of relapsing, self-discovery and relentless effort.
