Our barriers are self-imposed for the most part. That's both good and bad news. Good because it's an attitude within us, and therefore, we can change it. However, that's the downside, too as most of us don't like to feel uncomfortable in our life choices<div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class="sharethis-inline-share-buttons" data-url=https://fromaddict2advocate.com/5-common-barriers-change/></div>

We give into fears, discuss how difficult it is to change, and create excuses so we don't have to change.<div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class="sharethis-inline-share-buttons" data-url=https://fromaddict2advocate.com/stop-balking-at-the-changes/></div>

I found out that I don’t always need an umbrella and a lifejacket, and I can try new things and new ways. Not everyone in this World was put here to make my life miserable; there are good, kind people here. I’m not so bad as long as I’m sober! <div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class="sharethis-inline-share-buttons" data-url=https://fromaddict2advocate.com/secrets-and-shame/></div>
