What inspires you?

If you wish to quit drinking alcohol, who or what will inspire you to take the first step? Studies show that many people are inspired to take action when someone they respect does so before them. If you have a close friend who has quit drinking alcohol, you could well be inspired to give it a try.

But the situation is quite clear. All the inspiration in the world counts for nothing unless you want it to happen. You should never choose to quit drinking because someone else has done just that. You must want to quit and make that conscious decision to do so if you are to have any hope of success.

And did you know that you can help yourself quit by helping others? It’s a well- known fact. Do a good deed for someone else and that goodness is returned to you. By spending time with someone who wants to quit drinking alcohol, telling them how you did it and why, means you will create a win-win situation. You may well guide them to the best way of how to quit drinking and, at the same time, reinforce the things you believe in and are trying to put into practice every day.
