Monday Meeting of the Sober People Getting Shit Done Club
When I was drinking, I did shit (meaning, nothing). In contrast, now that I’m a non-drinker, I’m getting shit done. In fact, productivity has become one of my favorite parts of being sober.
Has this been true for you, too? Without the endless cycle of wasting time while drinking followed by recovering from a hangover, do you find yourself with extra hours in the day to do constructive things, such as finally finishing that book you’ve been reading or tackling that mess in the garage? If so, I invite you to join the Sober People Getting Shit Done Club.
In order to be a member of this club, you must do three things:
Get something done.
Be sober while doing it.
Tell us about it.
I’ll go first: My mother is British, and I have finally gotten around to doing something I have been meaning to do since I was a teenager – apply for dual citizenship between the US and the UK. The last step is I have to get her birth certificate out of the strongbox at her bank in Florida, which I will do when I am there in a couple of weeks.
If you are sober and have been getting shit done—whether it’s a big thing like rebuilding the engine of an old motorcycle or a small thing like making that long overdue phone call to your grandmother—I want to hear all about it!
