Alcohol is like fire. Use it well and in a controlled manner, and it will provide warmth and enjoyment. Let it get out of control, and it can be absolutely destructive.
In a nutshell, my drinking had reached a stage where it was having a negative impact on my day to day life.
It was adversely impacting me physically, mentally, financially, and those around me.
After a lot of serious self-reflection, I started to consider the ONE FOR ONE option. I can’t recall if I came up with this idea myself or if someone had told me about it. Most likely, it was brought up while (ironically) having a bunch of beers with my mates somewhere in the recent past, but I had never actually seriously considered implementing it. However, after a few successive drunken nights and hangovers too many, followed by self-loathing and then eventual self-reflection, I gave it some more thought, and I realised it could actually give me the best of both worlds: enjoy a few drinks, while still being in control AND be productive the next day… and so I gave it a shot (pardon the pun)….
… and after having started practising ONE FOR ONE, I haven’t looked back! It has enabled me to enjoy my drink responsibly, without having to set any unkeepable promises, and without the regret!
With this new feeling of “enlightenment”, I now feel the need to spread this “good news” with others. Hence I put this website together to start spreading the message, with the hope that many more can continue to enjoy alcohol and have it add value to their lives, rather than take away from it.
ONE FOR ONE!
CHEERS! =)
