The road to 1000 days:
1 Day, 7 Days (1 Week), 10 Days, 31 Days (1 month), 92 Days (3 months), 100 Days,
183 Days (6 months), 250 Days, 365 Days (1 year), 500 Days, 548 Days (18 months), 730 Days (2 Years), 750 days, 913 Days (2 1/2 Years), 1000 Days.
In the road to 2000 I'll record the same milestones again:Â I'm targeting 10,000 days and beyond.
Key:Â Bold writing - completed milestones.
     Bold and underlined writing - current milestone at time of posting
     Normal writing - future milestones.
My aim: Appreciate the monies I have and fulfil more of my potential without gambling.
Hi
How did you manage to do this?? I am married to a gambler. Are there any tips you could give me. We are 18 years in?
im so glad to hear you doing so well
many thanks

The purest answer I can give you is to have meaning in everything else I do. I have a job I love, people who rely on me and I have set ambitions and goals. That's not to say look at me, I am humble but proud to be able to say this. The other thing I know that I do is I appreciate what I have. And lastly, I have never once used other things as excuses in life since my mid teens onwards, I have always internally been able to look in the mirror and say you caused this. I wish you and your husband well. I got help to stop gambling but in the main I have had to do it all myself and for myself and although I've fallen down a couple of times it's because the things that have given me meaning have become clouded or I've been complacent. Thanks for your kind message.Â
Thanks Steven for your inspiring and meaningful post. Not only are you setting yourself significant goals and targets, you also show real gratitude for all the good things in your life. I will try to emulate the method to feel every milestone as a successful chapter. Best wishes to all.Â
