Why do I blog?

I don't know about you, but I didn't get sober to be miserable. I had spent years trying to figure out this sobriety thing I was in and out of the halls of AA and treatment centers. And I had had various lengths of sobriety. But there seemed to be something missing, something I wasn't getting. There were times that I had felt peace and serenity but true contentment? What was that? Over the past few years, I have realized or recognized some of the key elements in the various programs that I had attended AA, refuge recovery, the different programs I was researching NLP, DBT, CBT, and I started listening to motivational speakers such as Tony Robbins, Dean Graziosi, Mel Robbins, and Jens Sicero. All of them had similar approaches, although their techniques might have been a little different. I also was trying to find motivational speakers, particularly women in recovery, and I didn't see many actually; I didn't find any that I could identify with. So as I started learning these different strategies and techniques and started listening and realizing that there really isn't healthy women role models and recovery, I decided to take it upon myself to become one. The strategies I have learned over the years to stay sober and live a life create a life I don't want to numb from. It has been my motto, my mantra, and something I strive for continuously. And although I have achieved it, there are certain things that I do to maintain it. So I developed these blogs, videos, podcast to share some of my strategies with those that may be feeling the way I once did at the beginning of my journey. So if you're feeling stuck, if you're feeling unfulfilled, if you feel that something is missing in your recovery, you might want to check out what I've learned and try to apply them in your life. Not only have they worked for me, but I have helped many addicts and alcoholics also achieve this level of recovery. It's not just about putting down the drugs and alcohol, and I'm sure most of you have heard that before and know that.

I have created 6 levels to a fulfillment that will help you increase self-confidence, motivation, improve relationships, and the ability to handle any stressful situation with ease. So if you're interested in learning how to create a life you do not want to come from, follow me here on motivations4u.com or check out my Facebook and Instagram at Recovery Enthusiast. I've also got a podcast for those who like to listen again under motivations 4u, and that's on Anchor and Spotify. If you really can't get enough of me you can check out my website where I have courses that you can take on these strategies at recoveryenthusiast.com

as always, stay blessed and live your life enthusiastically

Wasting Time With Micro Timewasters

I t's   funny how we  notice when we waste time on a large scale. We notice that we spend an hour on social media or watch TV for three hours. However, these aren’t the only ways we waste time. We waste time in dozens of ways each day. Many of these time wasters aren’t always obvious, but the time can really add up over the course of a day, a week, or a decade. Your time is your most valuable commodity. Think about it, you can always make more money, but you can never make more time. We all have the same 24 hours a day. So in order to make the most of it, we need to be very cautious about time wasters. Don’t let your time just be frittered away! Imagine how much you could accomplish in that time! What could you do that really matters to you? Guard your time from the micro timewasters with these strategies: 1. Always have a phone charger with you. How many times a week do you need a phone charger and have to go into the other room to fetch it? Have multiple chargers and keep th...

Where are you going?!

What is it about hitting a milestone in your life that makes you freak out?        I remember turning thirty and thinking I'm a stay at home mom, I need to have this perfect home, be the perfect wife and all will be well. Ok miss Cleaver how did that work out for ya? By the time I hit forty I was full blown alcoholic in rehab and not home and kids not speaking to me. I've done a lot of stupid stuff that led me to that point. Stuff I can't change.       And so now here I sit 48 going on 49 and feeling like Whoa, where has my life gone?! Now I did clean up my act. I now work as a case manager for an addiction treatment facility and my kids do speak to me. I actually have a grandson that has stolen my heart. I am blessed. I live with my sister and her husband, which isn't the worst thing in the world but I want more. I'm also in school trying to better my life. But like I said I want more. Every time I think about wanting more my heart races and my ...
