I’m 3 years sober today and it still remains one of the best decisions of my entire life. This isn’t a preachy thread advising the whole planet to stop drinking - this is just where I’m at. 1/8
I’ve written about my reasons to quit in the link at the bottom of the thread so I won’t go over them again here - but to all the people who have contacted me in the 18months since it was published - I hope you are thriving and in a happier place. 2/8
To those that still need to whisper their thoughts to a stranger - my DMs are and will always be open to you. Do not suffer in silence. If you think you have a drink problem, share. It feels so much better, believe me. 3/8
A practice I’ve been using off and on for years: every morning I write a checklist of work I intend to do today, and work I won’t do today. Focused on more strategic efforts rather than calendar stuff. I check off the “won’t do” before sleep (and eventually move them up to “do”). 
The “won’t do” list is often more important than the “do” list. Setting the intention to deliberately not work on something gives me clearer space to think and work, and be less reactive. Some items stay on the lists for days/weeks/months, some I want to make sure I do every day.
I answer the daily questions as I head to sleep. 💤
