I have an addictive personality, most of my family has struggled with alcohol and I have been an alcoholic for 7 years. I have read many self-help books, but still find myself struggling. Do you think this biological trait is stronger than my desire to change?
Desire is the strongest thing possible. And by this I mean a sincere, strong and deep longing for something. This is immaterial….this is unseen; this is the energy within and is the basis for everything. So if you have a keen or real desire to change, then you can….regardless of the long history in your family. However, you must bear in mind such a change requires considerable courage and effort on your side. I believe this is where you are. Remember the line….if you want something, you will make a way; if you don’t, then you’ll make excuses.
I would love to hear any feedback, suggestions or stories about your own journey…
