It was not that hard. I mistaken it

When I completed my one year no alcohol. I thought it was a tough thing. That I did a hard work at doing it. I truly believed it.

But, really? I did not feel good for long. And started to question it.

I actually won a few moments when I decided not to drink. My life does not depend on drinking for a living. I do not have many social relationships. I drank every week, 2-3 times per week at night. Hence, I did hard things 2-3 moments per week. And that's it. Not much hard feeling. Actually It was not hard. I told myself it was a hard thing to feel food myself. It worked.

And since it was not really a hard work. It does not change me much. It does not help me to become stronger and better in the spirit. The mind is not resilience. Kind of weaker.

Average sucks! I need some wins from actual hard work everyday. Everyday means every single day.

Run over 10km and over 1hour every day. Let's start with it. Average Sucks! Really Sucks.
