Michele talks about choosing your battles. Have you read that?
My short term goals:
1. I would like for us be able to go out for dinner with our son, once every week, by February. 2. It would be great if we became thoughtful, caring and sincere, rather than like roommates or strangers, by April. 3. I want to be a calmer, more considerate person.
180� 1. Develop closer friendships, and have myself be accountable to them for my addiction and backsliding. 2. Get off my butt and do things I used to be able to do, e.g. walk, hike, buy things I like (when necessary only, of course), work on my physique, etc. 3. This may sound odd to some, but letting my yes be yes, and my no be no. As a former porn addict and subsequent liar, often my answers would consist of yeah, sure, nah, why not, nope, etc. Basically I'm being firmer in my resolve and/or answers. 4. Be able to apologize and be accountable for my mistakes, past or present, rather than be defensive (also part of the porn issue), blameful and/or spiteful. 5. Strengthen my relationship with God and my Christian family. My wife and I had lost that during our marriage.
