Set Free From bad Addiction


Free From Addiction
Breaking bad addiction can be hard! Sometimes its easier to go to the dentist and get a tooth pulled, than to change a bad addiction! What does it take for us to really go from A to Z and take a bad addiction that sabotages our lives and transform it into a good habit?
1. Take Inventory - Write down on a piece of paper what has this habit helped you accomplish? What have been the consequences of this bad addiction in your life? Has it made you a better person? Has it brought joy to people around you?
2. 30 Day Plan of Action - Write down an action plan on your calendar on what action can you take. example: I want to stop smoking. If its an oral fixation, place something healthy in your mouth like chewing carrots instead. If it's an addiction, get a patch and wean yourself slowly. The focus is that you have an action plan daily for 30 days to geared you towards change.
3. Support - Tell at least 3 of your closest friends your plan of action. Have them call you during the day. You call them when you get tempted. The key here is you have help.
4. Daily Journal - Write daily your progress. This is a way to process your thoughts and feelings. It's important to look at why those habits are there. At times we think that it's just changing an action in our lives instead of our thinking. Write down victories and see how that will help boost your moral.
5. Reward Yourself - When you see transformation make it a big deal. Celebrate your progress and victories with your friends. This will not only inspire you but others as well. Change breeds Change in others!
The most important things is that you are forging to be who you want to be and not just being! It takes courage, determination, and focus to see yourself on the other side. Take one step at a time, one day at a time and you will see yourself break free and live your life to the Ultimate!


First of all, we need to understand that an addiction starts forming when we start associating ourselves with it. A person really gets addicted to alcohol, when he starts seeing alcohol as part of his life. What a person really needs to do is to 'disassociate' himself with the thing he is addicted to. We are not just physical beings with all instincts that try to captivate us. We are spiritual beings that can and should take control of our lives and live free from any emotional, physical or any other kind of addiction. When we start seeing ourselves as such beings we are on our way to freedom from bad habits. Another thing that any person willing to quit his bad habit must do is to develop good habits instead of the old ones. You cannot just quit and live in a 'void'. There are no empty spaces in universe. If one habit is get rid of, it has to be replaced by another one. And if you do not change it with a good habit, you will surely develop another bad habit. That's why former drug addicts when they get rid of their addiction suddenly turn to something else: sex pleasures, overworking, overeating and etc. They do not replace their old habits with new ones and in this way some other bad habits take hold of them. So, almost all rehabilitation centers have new habits formation practice in their program.
One more necessary thing on the way to freedom is to develop new relationships. We usually cherish our addictions with the people who have the same passions and it is of utmost importance to form new relationships with people who do not have addiction that we have been suffering from. In this way we would not be tempted by our environment to do things that lead to addictions. This kind of experience might be very painful as we will probably have to say goodbye to our old friends and it will take time to form new friendships with people we never knew before. However, it is a must if we want to get rid of old habits and live in harmony with ourselves and the society. Even if the process takes a lot of time, it is worthwhile doing as we will see good 'fruits' of this choice later.When one has any form of addiction, the majority of the person's mind is completely taken over by what the person is addicted to. This makes it difficult when addiction issues are tried to be solved ONLY by withdrawal from the substance or activity. This is because there is an emptiness that is left in the person's mind and that is what craves for a fill, so the person ends up slipping back to the addiction. Therefore, in the place of withdrawal should be introduction to another form of addiction. As mentioned earlier, addiction can be good or bad, so getting addicted to the right activity solves the problem and does not leave that emptiness in the person's mind, so there won't be an issue of slipping back.For every negative addiction, there's a positive addiction to solve it. Simply find the one good thing you do and time seems to fly and get addicted to it. Each time the negative one pops up, DO that one good thing and in a period of 21 days, you will be comfortably addicted to it and at this point, it has replaced the wrong one.

All The Best

The least of your problems could be being pulled over be the police. This means that you could receive a fine of up to £2,500 and three points on your licence per tyre!
