About
"I’m Doug and I’m an alcoholic. One of the things I do for a living, is count. I count votes: yays, nays, neutrals, abstaining; I’m good at it. But the most important count I do has nothing to do with work. It’s the number of days since April 4th, 1999; as of this morning that’s 5185. The bigger that number gets, the more it frightens me, because I know all takes is one drink to go back to zero.
Most people see fear as a weakness. It can be. Sometimes for my job, I have to put fear in other people. I know that's not right. But if I'm honest - like the Four Steps asks us to be - I have to be ruthless. Because failure's not an option.
The same goes for my sobriety. I have to be ruthless with myself. I have to use my fear. It makes me stronger. Like everyone in this room, I can't control who I am. But I can control the zero.
Fuck the zero."Interact
