A huge part of making changes in our lives, like getting sober & living a life in recovery, are about re-calibrating improper use of instinct. People, places and things at one point influenced our thinking and those ideas/ways became a belief we accepted which became an auto response program in our brain, instinct, how and why we do what we do. We typically will continue to act on instinct even if the results are self destructive in nature until the work is done in self to re-calibrate this instinctive behavior.
.
To re-calibrate improper use of instinct we must put ourselves around individuals and systems that teach us new ideas we put into practice that eventually become our new belief and instinctual behavior. By reinforcing our daily life with this new system, overtime our instinct is re-calibrated, our actions are no longer what they use to be and the results are the opposite of our past struggles more often than not
