A first-person account from Mick Hunt describing life before sobriety: heavy drinking, drug use, womanizing, and awareness of wasted potential. The speaker frames recovery as choosing better-aligned behaviors to achieve long-term happiness (mentions living to age 88–92), influenced by Eastern philosophy (Taoism) and healthy mindsets. The passage emphasizes the ethical claim to happiness and the need for aligned choices.

Chapters

Part of my story is that before I got sober, you know, I was drinking all the time, drugs, womanizing. And I knew I had a lot of potential. And it was just basically, I knew that I was holding myself back. And I'm really into, like, a lot of Eastern philosophy, you know, Taoism. And I'm into a lot of things, like, just I like healthy mindsets. So, anyhow, my point is that I remember before I got sober, this is like, my why or my because is that if I live to be 88 or 92 or whatever it is, I have many years ahead of me. I want to be happy. I have a right to live this life and be happy. But also, I knew that I need to make better choices, and the choices that I'm making in my life are not in alignment with being happy.
