 Fawlty Showers 2


MOATivated

I also wanted to tell the people who came right up to the line that a line wasn’t enough.  Dig a moat.


If the doc tells you to avoid sweets, get the candy out of your house.  Make going to the store to buy candy the ‘moat’ you have to cross.


If alcohol is your problem, get it out of the house as well.  Make going to the bar the moat between you and a relapse.


If you’re tempted by someone who’s likely to ruin your life, avoid the places they go.  Dig your moat deep. Block them, lose their number.


You’re likely to hear the negative people in your life say, “If you want to do it, you’re gonna do it.”  They’re only semi-right.


If you want to badly enough, you can always cross the moat.  They are right about that.  But, the moat may be just enough to stop you, or at least slow you down. The moat gives you time to think: do I really want this?


Dig the moat.  If you can, put the negative people on the other side of it.


Today I will dig a moat.
