Ok, who is going to make the “I’m stopping gambling” resolution? Well done……. now how many times have you made that same resolution before??!!
I know I did many times!
Instead of making it again I would recommend resolving to take positive actions.
This year I WILL go to GA…
I WILL post more in forums here….
I WILL be accountable for my money…
I WILL be honest with my partner….
I WILL only carry the money i need on a daily basis..
I WILL get proper financial advice regarding my debts.
I don’t tend to make resolutions nowadays – if something needs doing then the time to do them is NOW. So if you are reading this and resolving to stop gambling on 1st January then I would say BS! Your addiction is giving you permission to gamble for the next couple of days – You can stop TODAY.
Having said that I am going to make a resolution this year – I’m going to read more. 🙂 and in line with the above I will be starting my first book when I finish here this evening, Just a small book: No One is Too Small to Make a Difference – Greta Thunberg.
Have a great gamble free New Year everyone.

Well I’ve started that book. This wasn’t intentional but it seems that saving the planet is very much like recovery – our words and promises won’t do it – it is our actions that are important 🙂

I’ve been gamble free for about 6 weeks now.
Before this year I would only bet small on sports but this year I got carried away on online slots. I’m struggling at the moment but I’m hoping the turn of the year I can put this year behind me and start to improve my life moving forward. -

On a brighter note, doing the more reading thing is going to be easy!
