47 Days
I have been neglecting this blog as, apparently, giving up cigarettes and alcohol doesn’t instantly turn you into an avid writer or vlogger.
I have experienced ups and downs benefits and draw backs over the past 47 days. Over all I have felt better. It has been a good experience thus far. In fact, I feel I could go on without alcohol forever at this moment in time at least.
However, I am slowly coming to terms with the fact I am an addict.
Without alcohol and cigarettes, I have become addicted to sugar and social media. So the next goal is for me to cut those shits out of my life or at least limit use of them significantly.
I think both have a huge impact on my ability to be mindful, get shit done, be happy and the person i want to be, so nipping them in the bud will hopefully pave the way for me to do more, and to get more out of life!
That said, I am occasionally getting flashes / pangs of the existential malaise...wondering why I am doing it and what it / anything matters...but I think the benefits are still felt more than eating McDonalds, Smoking Cigarettes and getting fucked up.
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs seems relevant. Thinking i’m missing some key components.
