“I can see clearly now the rain has gone

 I can see all the obstacles in my way.

Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind,

going to be a bright sunshiny day.”

• Johnny Nash (1972)

Life is messy. Daily we are confronted and bombarded with millions of choices. The chaos of life can be overwhelming. How can you refocus on what is truly important?

A moment of clarity, when you see what obstacles prevent you from realizing your best path, is the gift that can motivate you to achieve your goals. Whether this happens when one is under the influence or sober, the important thing is to use this clarity to focus on and tackle the problems.

               Even with help one must pinpoint their own demons. Working to eliminate or overcome them can be a boost in your confidence. Knowing that you are taking control can and will enhance well-being. Realizing your power, controlling your life will help you move forward and achieve your dreams.
