The behaviors of addiction, the escalation of our compulsive, harmful habits, are a crash waiting to happen, unless we take corrective action.
Picture this: addiction as a slow-motion car crash. You can see it happening, but with the right techniques, you can steer clear of disaster. In this episode of 'The Next Right STEPS', host Steve Ward dives into the phases of addiction, offering practical advice to help you or someone you care about avoid falling into its trap. Steve breaks down the journey to addiction into clear, predictable stages, making it easier to spot when things start going off course.
He talks about how 'life happens' moments can lead to 'stinking thinking', and how that can spiral into self-pity, impulsivity, and more. The episode doesn't just identify the problem; it gives you tools to tackle it head-on. Steve emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, reaching out for support, and even surrendering to a higher power. It's about making serious life changes to avoid addiction's grip.
If you're worried about someone close to you—or even yourself—this episode offers a roadmap to better choices and a healthier life. Tune in for insights that are both inspiring and actionable, and start taking the next right steps today.
