Dallas Bragg argues that recovery feels hard mostly because we expect it to be hard. That belief filters how we see everything, reinforcing the struggle. Change your expectation about quitting, and the actual difficulty shifts.
Here is why your recovery journey is difficult. It's because you say it is, because you believe it is, because you expect it to be. When you accept the belief that quitting Tina is very hard, that is what your thoughts will tell you, and that becomes the words that you say. Then that becomes the lens through which you see the world. When everything in your experience is filtered through the lens of recovery is hard, Then you will only see examples and confirmations of that belief. Your recovery journey and your life becomes what you think it is. Many of you think it is hard because of current circumstances, but current circumstances have happened because you think it's hard. Think about it.
