New here. Tomorrow will be my first post. Noon today was last lipper for a while. Already difficult knowing another dip is NOT right around the corner. Tin a day (at least) for 5 years. Ruining my life.
You too???? I just quit to pass an insurance screening. Sooooooooo looking fwd to that day I start back. I mean really quitting for a little bit is just as good, right???
:angry:
I think the phrase Bama was referring too was..."Noon today was last lipper for a while". the for a while indicates that this is not your true desire.
You might want to rethink the whole phrase...or just delete it!
The words you use have a direct corrolation as to the mindset....If I give myself a chance to use again, I WILL! I am an ADDICT! If I give myself a place to fail, I will... If I am not totally honest with myself, I will lie, cheat, scheam, my way back to the can, because I have done it all before....a hundred times.
Make the decision......I am quit! I will not use today! Caving is not an option!
Do you see any way out of those statements? The only difference between a CHAMP or a CHUMP........is U!
Yeah KBear, if this is a temporary thing - move on and don't waste our time. If you are in for the long haul then I am damn glad to have you.
Drinking and posting tends to not always work out well....instead of just being an ass I should have offered a little bit more in attempt to be helpful.
Perhaps that was just a poor choice of words. with the whole "last dip for a while" thing.
However, as the good Dr. outlined...words have a direct correlation with mindset. A positive mental attitude is one of the biggest keys to success.
I fully acknowledge that going into a quit thinking in terms of forever can be detrimental. As in...."it so damn hard on day 2, how the hell am I going to go through this for the rest of my life."
At the same time you have to have an attitude that breads success. Not one that leave you room to wiggle on your decision.
Get in here and make it happen. Focus on today and then we will move to tomorrow. Quit together.
