You must be the change you wish to see in the world Mahatma Gandhi
How much is alcohol affecting your work and how will your work improve once you stop drinking for good? These are some of the questions I ask in this video. As an example, I take a look at how my work suffered, how long it took once I had eliminated booze for my work to improve, and how far I’ve come in the three years since I began this new clean journey.

Hi Kevin!
Great video, thank you so much. Nutrition is super important. I got some good ideas about food. I’m great on vegetables, but trying to eat more fruit. The sugar replacement is important. Thanks again! Julie
Especially with your cravings and later in the day. Willpower tends to decrease the more tired you get. You can top up on your willpower by getting some glucose into your system. For me the best form of glucose is either good quality carbs, like rice or beans, or fruit.
Hi Kevin,
Very good video. Thank you for sending it out, its just what I needed. I’ve been struggling for the last few months. I’ve had a lot of financial concerns lately, driving me crazy, booze always seems like the easy way out.
I’m going to start biking in the mornings. I’m an early person as well but need to commit to more exercise/time for my self.
By the way, where is it that you film and walk, its looks awesome!
Thanks again,

Hi Mike,
It’s filmed just outside Guardamar, Alicante, Spain.

Wonderful video Kevin… Relearned a lot about the addictive part of alcohol, made me smile and feel less alone on this journey we’re on
Please keep doing what you’re doing …I’m sure this is helping many people on the planet.

I agree, great video. I’ve read somewhere that trying to do well in life is like trying to drive with the handbrake on; I’ve learned the truth of this as my work has been bearing the brunt of my alcohol problem for quite some time.
Your website is a lifesaver, Kevin – I’ve lost so much hope as a result of my drinking and many failed attempts to stop, but these videos are making me believe in the possibility of change again.
Yes, trying to succeed while taking any drug is like trying to drive with the handbrake on. It’s the proverbial downward spiral. Thanks for the comment, Agnes
Great video Kevin! Just what I needed to hear. Working on what my “new lifestyle” will be 🙂 Thank you for what you do here!
🙂
Thanks for the video Kevin, it was just what I needed to here again, Had a bad craving after work, Had car keys in hand, Decided to watch a vid before leaving and now I’m staying Home. Day 16 and I feel great. Thank you
That’s what it takes, Victor… you did the right thing. It gets easier and easier.
The hangover takes precedence because it gives us a purpose for the day. It takes away all the other crap in our lives and let’s us just focus on getting better. Once we feel better and face the problems, it’s time to drink again. Thank god I’m not doing that anymore.
I just wanted to say hello from Pennsylvania:) I have watched your videos for about 4 months and now I have quit drinking. I am almost a week in! I never thought I could do it. You are so absolutely correct man I feel so great. Better than I have in years. Me and my 2 sons have started to shoot archery. I read books now!! I’ll be 40 in September and I’m so glad I found you man!
You’re the bomb Kevin. Thanks from Florida.
