Day 13

“Our most important decisions are discovered not made. We can make the unimportant ones but the major ones require us to wait with the discovery.”

-Anne Wilson Scheaf

Personal Motivation to not Drink for Now:

As you head into week number two of your 30 days, it is important to review the reasons that you made your decision and stick to it.

I don’t want to get into trouble again and I want to make better decisions.

I plan on attending law school, grad school, or will need security clearance in the future and do not need disciplinary incidents on my record.

I no longer want to spend too much money on drinking.

I want to feel good about the way in which I am meeting new people and or relate to others more genuinely (as my real self).

I want to improve how I am doing academically by not getting drunk and feeling unmotivated.

I am physically being affected by my use.

I want to quit and not just say I am going to do it.

I want to get into better shape and have more energy.

I don’t want to accidentally harm or hurt anyone physically or verbally because I was drinking.

I do not want to be involved sexually with someone that I would have regret or guilt about later.

I want to make the most out of my college experience and goals without having regrets, and be proud of what I have accomplished.

I no longer want using to interfere with who I am spiritually and intellectually.

I no longer want to take foolish risks and embarrass others, my family, or myself.

I want to have fewer interpersonal conflicts.
