Recovery from alcohol and substance use disorder is much like the game of golf—it’s a path that calls for patience, practice, and persistence. Both present challenges that test your focus, strategy, and ability to stay composed under pressure. Just as every swing in golf requires intention and concentration, each day in recovery asks for the same level of dedication and mindfulness.
In both, setbacks aren’t failures but chances to learn and improve. The aim isn’t perfection, but steady progress—and the sense of fulfillment that comes from a well-played round or a successful day in recovery makes the journey truly worthwhile.
