I lost 95% of the month of March but I& #39;m pushing forward anyway.

I started 2022 with one major goal in mind.
To build a business from the ground up to help inspire change.
From January 1st to February 25th I was gaining momentum and moving closer to my goal.
However....
Everything paused on February 25th.

My girlfriend threw me a surprise 30th birthday party.
It was one of the nicest things anyone has ever done for me.
The party was held in a restaurant with an open bar.
@thedankoe and I committed to a sober 2022 and I told myself I wasn& #39;t going to drink that night.

@thedankoe and I committed to a sober 2022 and I told myself I wasn& #39;t going to drink that night.
I decided that one drink wouldn& #39;t hurt.
But it didn& #39;t stop at one drink...
1 turned into 2.
2 turned into 3..
3 turned into 4...
and the cycle continued.
It wasn& #39;t until the next morning that I realized I had made a HUGE mistake.

The hangover was absolute hell.
Even worse than that was my self-worth.
I felt so disappointed in myself.
I felt like a fraud.
That day I wasted 12 hours sitting on my ass feeling sorry for myself.
The foundation I was building for the last 60 days started to crumble.

I thought about quitting my goal of starting a business and going back to a 9-5.
It seemed easier.
I finally decided to sit down with a pen and some paper and dive through the thoughts racing in my mind.
Then I had a realization...

Then I had a realization...
I realized if I quit now that I would destroy my self-confidence.
My mental health would have gone to shit for the foreseeable future if I let that happen.
So I simply said fuck it.
Fuck quitting.

For the last 4 days I& #39;ve been getting back into the positive habits that help me start the year out strong.
- meditation
- journaling
- quality sleep
- exercise
- planning my day
- setting goals
- visualizing my future
But progress takes time.

I& #39;m posting this to tell you i& #39;m not perfect.
Shit happens and mistakes were made.
I realized I had 2 choices
1. Quit in my pursuit of starting a business.
OR.
2. Learn from my mistakes and push forward.
That& #39;s the moment I told option 1 to go fuck itself.

Making that decision empowered me.
I felt that spark of energy again.
It motivated me to start cleaning up the mess of the last 24 days.
Personal growth isn& #39;t pretty.
But taking responsibility for my past actions gave me the peace of mind that I needed.

The biggest lesson I learned from this experience was dwelling on the past is pointless.
Take responsibility for your actions and fix what needs to be fixed.
Learn from your mistakes and be better.
