When I was drinking alcohol, it was so easy to get sidetracked. All you had to do was sit down, get a bottle of beer, sit down, drink the beer, you get sidetracked…

If I didn’t like something that I was doing, I’ll get a few beers, and I could sidetrack myself easy. If I had a problem in my life, or if I had emotions and I didn’t like, I’ll buy a few beers, bottle of wine, and I would do that time and time and time and time again. And then I spent a lot of time wondering why my life was turning to shit? And I get sidetracked again, by going out and drinking more beer or buying more. When I was smoking weed, that was even better for getting sidetracked because I could smoke weed and drink beer and get really sidetracked…

So what you focus on is what you get in this life. And if you spend your life looking for problems and trying to get sidetracked from those problems, then that’s what you’re going to get, you’re going to get more problems, and those problems are built up on problems and problems… If you spend your life looking for problems and then looking for solutions and how to push yourself to solve those solutions, then that’s better.
