How do I find the motivation to carry on?

Whether you are somebody that gave up alcohol for a set amount of time or forever, the question of how to stay motivated is one that we are often asked. Hame's plan was to give up for a year. He has chosen to carry on but wants to find out how to keep up the momentum without the excitement of ticking off all of the 'I've-never-done-this-before-sober' things. For Vic, it's a different story. When she gave up, she knew it was forever and her motivation and clarity of thought have not wavered. Are there days that are harder than others though? Of course...she's a mother of 3 after all! In this week's episode, Vic 'The Guru', is here to share some of her 'wisdom' on how to keep up your sobriety motivation year after year.
