Breaking Free: Tony Silveira's Guide to Ditching Bad Habits

When we try to quit a bad habit, we usually delay and delay, and it takes a lot of courage to give up on something that you like, something sometimes that you depend on, and maybe you think that you can continue that bad habit for A Couple Of Years, that you're still too young to change.
Imagine your bad habit as a sneaky enemy that’s been holding you back for too long. In this episode of 'Power to Win', Tony Silveira dives into the art of letting go of those pesky habits and tackling addiction head-on. Tony, a former addict turned motivational coach, brings a mix of tough love and heartfelt encouragement, making this episode both relatable and inspiring.
Tony paints a vivid picture of addiction, likening it to a slowly draining bathtub that you need to empty before it overflows. He believes that seeing addiction as a personal adversary can fuel your determination to fight it with everything you’ve got. Throughout the episode, Tony stresses the importance of validation and encouragement, especially for those who grew up in less-than-ideal circumstances. But it’s not all about the struggle; Tony also offers practical advice.
He suggests asking yourself pivotal questions like 'Do I need to change my lifestyle to change my future?' and 'What do I want to achieve in the next five years?' These questions aren’t just for pondering—they’re meant to kickstart your journey towards a better life. Tony doesn’t shy away from the fact that giving up a bad habit takes courage and can involve a lot of delaying.
However, he encourages listeners to visualize a life free from their bad habits and understand that putting off change can sometimes be too late. He also highlights the value of finding a mentor or coach who can guide you through this challenging process. If you’re ready to see your addiction as the enemy and fight back with all your might, this episode is packed with insights and strategies that could be the game-changer you need.
