Dark Clouds have Silver Linings

I have to post this to be open and clear. One of the checklist items

suggested was to "maintain the streak" in reference to not having a slip up drinking beer. On my 8th day, I had a 'mis-step' and had several beers. That is my Dark Cloud.

I also need to share the Silver Lining. Usually when I have a 'mis-step' it lasts for a few days until I feel so bad that I HAVE to stop drinking. Today, I made sure I re-hydrated well and got right back to eating clean. There was no addictive urge to go buy more beer or anything like that.

So, even though I broke my beer-free streak, I will count the Silver Lining as a bigger win than a failure in general.

Last week , the motto on my white boards was "Stay The Course". Today I changed it to "Maintain the Streak".

Edit: (3/2) Maurice actually said "Protect the Streak" not "Maintain the streak" Its similar, sure, but a different feel to it for me. Just wanted to clarify.
