If you aren't really clear on your values, how do you know where to put your energy and how to make your best decisions?
Johnny Critch takes listeners on a deep dive into the values that have been pivotal in his journey to sobriety. In this episode of 'My Addiction Started on a Monday', Johnny opens up about how embracing core values has guided him through the murky waters of addiction recovery. He shares candid reflections on his past, admitting that a lack of values led him to make poor choices that fueled his addiction.
Now, with a renewed focus on what truly matters, Johnny explains how sobriety has enabled him to make rational decisions and become a more responsible person in his relationships. He doesn't shy away from the hard truths, discussing how recovery is a continuous process that demands patience and consistency. Highlighting the importance of realistic goal-setting, Johnny shares a study showing many people abandon their New Year's resolutions within weeks, stressing the need to be practical about one's goals.
Negative emotions, he warns, can derail progress and lead to self-sabotage. Johnny encourages listeners to pay close attention to their feelings and engage in actions that align with their recovery goals. A particularly touching part of the episode is when Johnny talks about 'paying it forward'. Helping others in need has not only been therapeutic for him but also a cornerstone of his recovery. This episode is a heartfelt resource for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
Johnny's insights offer a blend of personal experience and practical advice, making it an inspiring listen for those on the path to sobriety.
