It's all mindset...

Your plan

Align yourself with truth; get a vision to create a life you don’t want to escape from. Build a life you love, to attract what you desire.

The approach
The usual approach is related to the addicts, by letting them know to  having some kind of “addiction problem”. It should  always be related “to people”.
But here is the good news: alcohol has nothing to do with people, neither to people’s suffering. The best answers are to be found within the evolution of life itself. So let’s ask the right questions. So how would you think to attract a better life? The best answer? By cultivating a vision. When people cultivate a vision, they don’t like alcohol holding them back from that mission. In fact, they even believe its a stupid, irrelevant drug.

Most “experts” try to convince people how alcohol is bad for them, which leads to more fear, because, the drug then becomes even more valuable to resist. They dont explain alcohol as a drug and they dont explain the need of direction. People need vision! Resisting alcohol as “something good” doesn’t work long-term. Any willpower wont last forever. And being a shame to became dependent, does more harm than good.

The Merise approach, has only to do with the truth to the future. Alcohol doesn’t support any vision, it moves people away from it, it holds them back.

A new mindset
Your limited knowledge around alcohol, has the same limitation as if you were running a marathon with a broken ankle (except you would then have at least a direction to go to). You can’t even get a direction if alcohol is blurring your vision. Alcohol distorts reality, especially on longer term throughout dependency; it takes your time, energy, spirit, confidence, social connection, health, freedom. There are no benefits to serve reality itself, instead it steals reality and therefore any vision. The nature of the drug has is opposite direction; it slows down people to underperformance, denial, blame, excuses and hope.

Acknowledge
Acknowledge alcohol as a stupid distraction, which has nothing to do with your needs. Be open to learn how alcohol moves you away from reality, let alone a reality you could wish for. Without proper direction, everyone is vulnerable. Alcohol doesn’t help to move from the within (such as confidence, discipline, peace, compassion, gratitude, meaning, value, direction, vision, etc). Instead, you attract the people who are likely to deal with a weak vision themselves; attraction works in both opposite directions: acknowledge the fact of a hard drug, to understand the need of another direction… vision.

Own the truth
Learn the truth around alcohol, to be able to get to yourself. Re-align with reality, (re) discover who you are, what you like, where you really want to go, to serve others and improve the world. Own the truth, so you become able to act on it.

Find the solution
Learn how alcohol steals your vision. Learn how leaving any alcohol habits will bring you more time, spirit & energy, so you can build on a vision to ATTRACT.
Get all the tools to get rid of any alcohol cravings; reprogram your subconscious mind. Adapt to an early morning routine, to start working on your vision, to attract what you really need, which is a more fulfilling than most average people who have no clue on their directions.

Make it happen
Your goal is not to get sober, your goal is to find the underneath desire to get a vision – and – leaving alcohol is the best thing to do to pursue that vision! Your vision doesn’t come at once, you first start to  puzzle out the pieces to see that image. If you implement an early morning routine without toxicity in your system, you will create the best settings to accomplish this, as you will eliminate the worst distractions ever, alcohol!  Your spirit needs some air, some peace, to figure out how you can become someone of value to others. Notice that 90% of the people who try to change their relation to alcohol are missing the point, as they all try to avoid the drug they like, they all resist their behavior with willpower. They don’t dive into the deep desire of getting any vision. Once they manage to quit for a while, they end up with a miserable feeling of lack; the lack of direction which they are not aware off AND their lack of a vision. And what do people eventually do when they feel miserable? They drink, as the familiar path of least resistance. Your vision will bring you a direction, your own flow state. The stronger the direction, the stronger you attract, the more fulfillment, the less you want to distract yourself from. This is exactly what successful people do: direction, flow, vision.

Your plan is a proven concept.
Most successful people attract, by offering value they found within themselves. When that happens, they don’t have any desire to waste their time by useless distractions. This even applies to “problem drinkers” who became alcohol experts, as they became excellent writers, coaches, etc. They found purpose & vision to help others, eliminating any conflict to their old alcohol belief system; they found direction, to help others towards self-improvement. But luckily, a vision is a general thing to solve any kind of problem that will exist everywhere. So get the one vision, that is waiting for you!

When you were a kid at school, your flow state (vision) was mostly given to you; your parents & school schedule gave you ‘ their’ directions, with homework to do to get good grades without any alcohol habits involved. You had time to relax and sit back, to learn about what the teachers had to say. But once you got older, you were supposed to grow furthermore from the within to your own directions. You got challenged to get your own flow state – and in between – you also learned how life could be more comfortable with a drink. Now, start criticizing alcohol again from the start, because what we learned about alcohol… is mostly false.

Stop the conditioning first
To find & cultivate a strong vision you need the highest spiritual energy. Alcohol doesn’t provide that, it only distracts you to fantasyland. You need to get rid of the false alcohol belief that is happening in the subconscious mind. But your subconscious mind.. is also a very powerful thing: it regulates 90% of our learned behaviors to use the lowest brain energy possible… such as ‘ drinking alcohol’. The subconscious mind even controls how people breathe (and it’s impossible for people to stop breathing). People often think that changing any relation to alcohol is all about conscious choices to temper the damage, but the best experts all know this is a lie. First of all: our consciousness has only 10% power which consumes LOTS of energy, especially when we resist behaviors/habit to the things we like: eventually, the energy of resisting something will burn out (like the energy of a muscle), so people WILL get back to drinking again to continue their subconscious low energy programming, moderating themselves to dependency, which holds them back again to align with themselves to the core needs of a vision. Secondly, alcohol interferes with our brains towards dependency and even addiction, because it’s a hard drug. Normal ‘ drug users’ won’t agree, everyone gets in denial of course do defend their drug, because they mostly don’t identify it as a problem. However, TRUTH is here to be uncovered.  

Build a life you don’t feel the need to escape/distract from: build momentum through a morning routine to cultivate your vision.
As you stop the conditional habits of drinking, you’ll get huge amounts of time, spirit and energy that alcohol used to take unnoticeably. Even if you repeated alcohol with low quantities at a time, you are constantly messing with your (rem) sleep over a longer period, which is crucial as the negative effects are building up. The quality of sleep alone will already make a huge impact to wake up in the early mornings, energized with clarity.

You implement those wins into an early morning routine to use your time and energy more efficiently. For instance: If you used to wake up at 7, you are now waking up at 5, easily without any alarm. As you win 2 hours per day, you win 14 hours a week. That’s almost 2 working days a week which is as an increase of 30% of spiritual power to align within the present moment. The morning doesn’t care about yesterday or tomorrow, there is no anxiety or boredom holding you back, you get to focus on the day yet to come without any distraction. Change your biological rhythm to feel concentrated, emotionally calm, to observe your thoughts, feelings and sensations with clarity and without any judgement. Your spirit will propose new ideas with meaning to serve. The early morning has a meditative effect, you will feel more serene during the day. As you start the day mentally rested, calm and energized, you will attract more opportunities that meets your vision. This also leads to equanimity; a state of psychological stability and composure which is undisturbed by the experience of or exposure to emotions, pain, or other phenomena that may cause people to lose the balance of their mind.

Understand the power of transformation: if you keep repeating a poison through habits, it will bring more anxiety to new discomforts. Evolution wants the exact opposite; a direction moving to order, eliminating uncertainties. Direction is key; cultivate a powerful vision to move into an the direction you want to attract!
