I Need to Keep My Eye on the Prize

Everyday living

I keep delaying stopping smoking

It’s the egregious hot weather….still, in the third week of September, the weather is persistently at 20+ degrees

I haven’t been to the gym for 3 weeks

But…I haven’t been drinking alcohol and I am also gaining new qualifications

I didn’t finish school, so I haven’t got any GCSE’s or whatever…but it turns out, I’m gonna get all the qualifications I need to go into my desired line of work (recovery practitioner)

I want to be smoke free

I’m really looking forward to the day when I can say, yeah I used to do pretty much everything…and now I don’t do anything

I need to remember why I’m doing these things, I want to improve my life

And also, yeah, ROLL ON AUTUMN/WINTER

I was a heavy-ish drinker just on the weekends, but not having a single drink this year, I honestly don’t miss it.
I think for the first time, I will try not to think of Autumn and Winter as the gloomy months; maybe it will take mind of health gripes too, hopefully.
