Loving anything is a tall order. Some brains just don't work that way.

Give yourself a reasonable amount of time to make a desision, then implement and learn from how it could have gone better. Learning from what you did wrong is the best teacher you will ever have.

Taking steps is all that matters. You can have amazing results and not "love it". Actions matter for results.

Unless , like me, you are a lawyer who occasionally lacks attention to detail.

The point is, eventually you have to stop thinking and start acting. Sometimes there is no perfect solution and it's a waste of your time and energy to try and find one instead of just moving forward and learning from whatever happens. The number of people choosing to ignore the actual context of the message is odd to me.

They are not telling you not to think, but not to overthink. When you overthink you are trying to account for every minute detail and as a consequence, you end up paralyzed and exhausted.

As someone who loves someone with an alcohol, pills and meth addiction, drug and alcohol addiction is brutal. My sister has been in and out of treatment and is 55 years old. I've seen her at her best, clean and sober, happy, productive and content and I've seen her as she is right now, spiraling out of control, homeless, angry and scared to death of withdrawals. I would not wish it on my worst enemy. Please be your own best friend and take good care of yourself and don't let anyone get in the way of your sobriety..

Sadly there is very little point trying to get people to see how much of a powerful statement this is. People do not get this until something happens to them that makes them realize this.
