When I first began what I knew at the time would be my final attempt at getting alcohol out of my life, I happened to read an interview of John Mayer in a magazine in a waiting room.
While not a teetotaler, by eliminating 90% of my drinking habit I definitely notice the change. Feeling like one is able to maximize their potential is liberating. I'm also coming up on one year without cigarettes. Being attached to habits that dictate how you live life while at the same time shortening it is not the way to go.
I love that you came to that conclusion on your own. I took it to the bitter end, but since the day I drew a sober breath 8 years ago, my life has been fundamentally transformed in the most unexpected and incredible ways. Congrats on your approaching anniversary!
Thank you! Congrats to you as well, Jen. Don't let my post above fool you, my journey quitting alcohol was a long one with many failures. That story above was simply the last (and thankfully final) time. ;-)

Hear hear! Well done. You've got a strong mind.
