Why I "Really" Started Drinking, And What I Discovered That Made It Easy To Stop.

Train with me to become a coach - www.andyramagetraining.com

On Saturday I had one of the best days of my life.

Seriously, if it all grinds to a halt tomorrow, I will go to my next adventure happy.

It all began with a simple question that I have asked myself every day for the last month:

What beliefs do I need to create to make today great?

Sounds too simple, I know.

But stay with me.

The world we experience on the outside reflects our beliefs on the inside.

This incredible wisdom has flowed through the ages.

You can’t control the events that happen to you, but you can control the beliefs you hold about them, which will dictate how you feel.

So you have ultimate control.

After 30 days of asking this question, momentum is starting to build.

I begin each day with a win.

I woke up!

Seriously, not everyone will wake up.

So you get another go.

You don’t have tomorrow or yesterday—only today.

Why waste it?

You can make every day a masterpiece.

On Saturday, I woke up to the most spectacular sunrise.

I asked myself what beliefs would make today great.

As I walked to the gym, the roads were empty, and I could feel the warm morning sun on my face.

I listed off some of my beliefs for the day.

Do not be afraid, everything will be ok

Control what you can control and let go of everything else

Smile

Radiate joy

You have your health

A wonderful family

Don’t sweat the small stuff.

Then I got a text from my wife Tara.

“Shall we go to London for lunch to our new favourite restaurant, Cambino on the Old Brompton Road.”

“YES!”

I added a twist.

We would stay fasted and walk from the city to the restaurant to take in the sights of London.

It took us about 3 hours, with some breaks.

And every bit of it was bliss.

From the Thames to Green Park and the Palace.

I then discovered another great truth:

Hunger is a great sauce!

It was after the first bite that I exclaimed.

“I am going to put a line under today. If this is the last one, I am happy!”

Life is a reflection of the beliefs you hold.

So my take away for you is to begin your day with a question:

“What beliefs do I need to create to make today great?”

Let me know how you get on.
