Sometimes change can be very hard, yet it's in the times of dire necessity that one can harness this power to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles, including addiction recovery.
When life throws you into a corner, sometimes it's the push you need to make real change. In this compelling episode of Elevation Recovery, hosts Chris Scott and Matt Finch explore the raw power of necessity in the battle against addiction. Drawing from their personal experiences, they dive into how recognizing the urgent need for change can fuel one's journey to sobriety.
Matt shares his insight, saying, "Now I'm so confident in myself and I know myself a lot, so that self-knowledge and necessity is the genesis to genius". This episode underscores the importance of self-awareness and how understanding your own needs can be a game-changer in recovery. Chris talks about his shift from focusing on what's missing in life to appreciating what he has. This change in perspective has been crucial in his own recovery journey.
He points out that people often underestimate their capabilities, especially when struggling with addiction. By tapping into their inner strength and understanding the necessity for change, individuals can achieve remarkable feats. The hosts also discuss how financial status impacts addiction recovery. Matt notes that necessity can feel more pressing for those who are financially strained, but addiction doesn't discriminate—it affects everyone, regardless of wealth.
They emphasize that recognizing the urgency to change is key for everyone, no matter their financial situation. Another interesting point they touch on is the value of playfulness in recovery. Chris believes that incorporating fun and light-heartedness into daily routines can significantly improve one’s mindset and overall well-being. By focusing on habits and processes rather than just end goals, the journey of recovery becomes more enjoyable and sustainable.
This episode is packed with valuable insights on using necessity as a powerful tool in overcoming addiction. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone else, Chris and Matt offer wisdom and practical advice to help you harness your inner strength and achieve lasting sobriety.
