In today’s Daily Trudge, I’m talking about “Instant Gratification vs. Delayed Gratification.”

In addiction, we chased quick fixes — the drink, the high, the rush — anything to change how we felt right now. In recovery, we learn a new way of living: patience, trust, and the willingness to wait for the real rewards.

This episode dives into why instant gratification can still sneak up on us in sobriety, how it keeps us stuck, and how choosing delayed gratification helps us grow spiritually, emotionally, and mentally.

The truth is — we don’t need everything right now. We just need faith in what’s coming.
