I need to taper down the small wins, like you want to be Jordan. You want to be four defenders and then make an impossible, lay up and draw the foul and then just fucking shrug, you don't want to be like. I just did a fucking, really good gig to three people in a container. I'm possibly the greatest comedian of all time. Why don't you take A Week off?
Ever thought that celebrating small wins might be more harmful than helpful? In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', comedian David Boyle sheds light on a lesser-discussed aspect of sobriety: the pitfalls of resting on your laurels. With his usual blend of humor and raw honesty, Boyle shares his personal struggle with taking his foot off the gas when things start to go well.
He explains how these moments of relaxation can be just as risky as the tough times, leading to complacency and a loss of momentum. Boyle emphasizes the importance of setting big, far-reaching goals that make smaller achievements seem like mere stepping stones. Drawing parallels between his own experiences and the mindset of successful individuals and teams, he illustrates how focusing on the bigger picture can keep you motivated and driven.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone on a journey of self-improvement, offering practical advice on how to harness the energy from good times to propel yourself toward even greater accomplishments.
