It's The Bearded Man

One of the biggest shifts I’ve had in my life over the past couple years is the amount of alcohol I consume, I’ve cut back tremendously. What really woke me up was doing Sober October back in 2019 and cutting out all booz for 30 days straight.  3. Alcohol Outline Quick Recap from Episode 2 - Morning Routines (0:15) Todays podcast is focused on alcohol (2:15) I’ve experienced both sides of drinking Side 1 - the unforgettable nights Side 2 - nights we’re drinking for all the wrong reasons  I cut back A LOT on drinking alcohol to focus on myself (12:05) The scary truths (13:05) I’ve had family members die, get DUI’s, lost careers, ruin relationships etc from booz I’ve been behind the wheel when I shouldn’t / been in a car with someone who shouldn’t have been either  I’ve drank beyond my limits to the point I’ve blacked out  I’ve used it as a form of escapism from things that I’ve dealing with in my life  What I’ve realized about myself with drinking (22:50) I can only drink in moderation or else it can become a problem  Depending on the situation it’s better for me NOT touch it at all Alcoholism is a disease that I think can pass on from generation to generation  Moving to LA helped me cut back on drinking significantly (25:30) I lived with Dylan (who has never drank) & Steve (who rarely does). Felt like an outcast if I was to drink solo  First night out in LA, I missed a handful for networking opportunities because i was too busy drinking. Hard but valuable lesson to learn.  Driving for Uber full-time, I worked every Friday & Saturday night I surrounded myself with go-getters, hustlers & passionate people  Alcohol can bring people together for the right reasons or can be the only reason (32:20) One common goal : to drink & go out But would we still be hanging with these people if we removed the booz?  Now I drink to REWARD myself for a great week (34:15) Sober October in 2019 was incredibly beneficial for me (34:55) 30 days of no booz The benefits from doing it I slept better every night, I saved $$$, I didn’t waste time hungover / unmotivated, made better eating decisions, energy levels were consistent everyday, had better headspace to think / create & I realized I didn’t need it to survive Cutting off drinking completely (39:40) Alcohol is the cherry on top. It’s not necessary but it’s appreciated.  I try to avoid at all costs during business environments Bearded Man Community Q’s (43:15) Does it take time and space to break the cycle of being addicted to drinking? @JoeySher37 3 internal benefits of being sober for 30 days?
