You may go to the Crossroads many, many times . . . .

Every time I feel that urge to give in, and I have the opportunity. I'm alone, access to a computer. . . . I want a shot of dopamine but I also want to STOP FEEDING THE DOPAMINE LIZARD so he won't grow. Every time I go through this I sing these words in my head "I went down to the Crossroads, fell down on my knees . . . ". Turn right, you're safe and feel successful and grow strong. Turn left, you PMO, feed the lizard and deal with another failure. . . . AND you delay your own recovery because you missed an opportunity to build mental toughness. It doesn't mean the fight is over, it's never over. There will be another opportunity to make the same decision. Another Crossroad. Today I opened the laptop lid and was at the Crossroads . . . today I came here instead. I turned right.
