Do you keep promising yourself you won’t drink tonight—only to change your mind when 5 p.m. rolls around?

The problem may not be your willpower. The problem is that “I’m not going to drink tonight” is an intention, not a plan. If the situations that usually derail you are predictable, you can prepare for them before they happen.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• how to identify the specific situations that are most likely to make you change your mind about drinking;
• how to anticipate the predictable excuses your brain will offer when temptation hits;
• why having one simple first move can interrupt the automatic sequence that leads to drinking;
• how to choose one thought you want to remember when your brain is focused on immediate relief. 

If you keep making plans not to drink and then abandoning them when the craving shows up, this episode will help you prepare for the moment you’re most likely to change your mind—before you’re in it.
