Good for you motownjohnny. I won't pretend it's a perfect system, but the one day at a time, philosophy works pretty well for me, and has helped me in overcoming alcohol addiction.

You might want to look up Jon Kabat-Zin's books, Full Catastrophe Living, or Wherever You Go There You are, for information about mindfulness which is all about living in the now. I practice mindfulness and find it really helpful.
