Giving up drinking changed my life

Hello steemers <3

I have promised to post about my healthy lifestyle and today I want to write about my life without alcohol. I stopped drinking three years ago and I will say that it changed my life. Now I see life in another perspective (a better way), my happiness, economy and health is a lot better now. I have nothing against anyone drinking and I respect other people’s opinions.

Why I stopped:
I have always thought about giving up drinking and it has been a long consideration before I stopped. I was thinking about the consequences and my social life. The main reason for giving up alcohol is that I want a healthy lifestyle with sport and healthy food.

How it affects me:

  • PERSONAL: It have been difficult to stop because I lost some of my friend and got lonely sometimes. After a while I became more open minded and got more confidence in myself. I has always been a shy person and I was always sitting in the back of the class. Now I trust myself more and can contact other students.

  • EDUCATIONALLY: I am studying law in Denmark. Even though Greenlandic is a part of Denmark it is not my first language. It hasn’t been easy to speak fluent in Danish and do presentation when you are shy. Now I can see the positive difference between my grades before and after I changed my lifestyle.

  • HOW I SEE LIFE: I have become a more grateful about the things I have and more thankful for my life. My motto is: “Train your mind to see the good in every situation”

  • ECONOMY: You might know that you use plenty of money when you are going out with friends. You will buy some drinks, food and of course food the day after for hangovers. It is very expensive just to repeat the same old pattern. You can enjoy the parties without drinking.

There are so many things you can achieve in life and I hope that my post has inspired
