Jack Canfield describes creating the 30 Day Sobriety Solution with Dave Andrews, adapting ideas from The Success Principles. The program took a year to write and test, designed to help people quit or cut back on drinking privately at home.
Chapters
You know, the reason I wrote the 30 day sobriety solution is that I've seen alcohol really rip its way through my own family. My mother was an alcoholic, my grandmother was an alcoholic, my aunt was an alcoholic. Two of my children had issues with addiction, one of my siblings, and so forth. And so I know the pain that's caused by that. And when Dave Andrews and I met and I found that he had taken a lot of the material that I had developed in the success principles and was applying it successfully to the field of recovery, I got very, very excited. So we got together and we continued to develop the program that he had already developed and decided we really ought to write a book and make this available way beyond the clients that he was currently working with and I was currently working with. And so we spent over a year writing the book, and then we spent several months testing the book over 30 days segments with people that were alcoholics, people that had addiction issues. And we're very successful in helping people achieve sobriety. So I'm really excited about the opportunity that this provides now to really up level and take to another level this whole issue of how to help people move through this challenge. It can be so very difficult if you don't have the support you need. It's very difficult if you don't have the money you need. And it's very difficult if you afraid of like, you know, public exposure of this issue in your life. So I'm excited that we've created a really powerful tool that actually delivers the results that can help anyone seriously quit or cut back drinking in the privacy of your own home.
