Tony Robbins famously said, “Where your focus goes, your energy flows.” This concept plays out in countless ways in our daily lives.
We’ve all seen it. Someone gets sober, and everything seems to be going perfectly. Relationships are mending, they’re full of optimism, and it looks like they’ve finally found their footing. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, they relapse.
