If you need accountability to maintain your pace while you cut back or stop drinking go to www.NoHaloNM.com and schedule a meet and greet session! 

One of the tools I use I learned from a friend who went to AA. They have a rule that you can make amends when it will cause no harm to you or the others person. 

I liked this rule, in some cases. In other situations I did not like this rule because I desired closure from the situation. We have moments in life and circumstance that we must move on from without receiving closure the way we want it. 

Know what you are willing to go through for your closure. Let go of what will hinder your growth by assessing if it was for a reason, season, or life time. 

If you want a strategy session to brainstorm the change you desire lets connect. Meet and Greet Sessions now open for Podcast Listeners, Click HERE to set up!

How come we can lie so much but we cannot face the fact that we have made ourselves the biggest fools out there. 

Everyone else can see the problem, We may think we are covering it up, but they have given up on caring. We begin to build trust in our decision making when we stop believing the lie that everything is okay. 

If you want to stop drinking without going to rehab or quitting your job, go HERE!

You were not created to be an Angel, You were created to Do Better Today!

I was able to hide my secret, for a while. Holding the secret in was part of the problem. It made me feel guilt and shame, then I would drink again.

If we keep these secrets bottled up we begin to loose our minds.

Alcohol and other drugs gave me a comfort from this feeling of hurt.

Need accountability to quit faster?

Need a coach to learn faster?

Liar Liar Pants on Fire!

When I was drinking and actively addicted to drugs I was lying. I lied to my “Loved ones” I lied to my friends.

The worst person we can Lie to is ourselves. When we lie to ourselves we remind ourselves that we aren’t trustworthy.

This leads to us living in a false reality.

I would over drink when I was unclear and confused. It was the only thing that made sense to me at the time drink until I black out to get some sort of piece. I understood I would not be able to continue this pattern because it was physically causing damage, mentally caused damage and was financially causing damage!

I knew I could get it done without going to rehab, I needed a blueprint. One of the tools that help me is shared in this episode. It gives you examples of how to work through it on your own, b cause the problem is not going away on its own.
