Once I realized I couldn’t just have one drink I started to realize who I really was. I started realizing it’s not just alcohol, it’s the gym, coding, smoking trees, running, golf. When you have an addictive personality and you have talents is when things get interesting. Because your addiction with the bad will always take over the good. That’s why I just don’t touch any of it now. Funny thing is I was shy too in high school but once I joined the army I drank and was so outgoing, but that was just the alcohol. It’s crazy to go 20 years accomplishing different things , but never knowing who you are. That was me, but 16 months sober now and I’ll never touch any of that shit again . God bless you all 🤙🏽🙏
Cunning, baffling, and powerful
Respect…..IF IT WAS ANYBODY ELSE …YOU HYPOCRITE HATERS would glaze in the comments …..weirdos are OBSESSED with hating Jon …he is successful and yall are BROKE and cant fight😅
Brains isnt the number 1 criteria for guys who punch people in the face for a job.
I once took a 6 month break and thought I could have one tall strong beer like a barley wine smoke chaser. Once I finished the 24oz beer, my body went auto pilot, went to the store and got a bottle of Jamison, I woke up on the floor in my bed room with the bottle half empty. I was like man, here we go again 😂
By "catch an Uber" he really means follow up with a couple lines, drive, argue with the cops when gets pulled over and then go beat his wife.
For anyone who is sober or working on it. This is exactly what failed or fake sobriety sounds like. If you were an addict you will absolutely never have a healthy relationship with your vice.
When you break the idea that alcohol is a "Problem", you begin to realize the "Problem" is not the substance. The "Problem" is simply an idea.
Tho one opponent who is undefeated against Jones 🍻
That's exactly what the disease of alcoholism wants you to think. No alcoholic can have just one drink.
It's all a maturity thing. When you get older you think about the consequences more
No hrs not, there's always someone tougher
I’ve thought this about 6 or 7 times in the last 10 years. Works for a week and then right back to the chaos, and fear that I’ll never be able to stop again.
There is no "healthy relationship" with alcohol. But "delusion"? That's the horse of a different colour.
He might be ranked as the best but he'll never be his best. Imagine if he had the discipline equal to his talent.
Maybe he's not an alcoholic?
There ARE people that drink a LOT, because they like it, and can stop/start whenever. It's not always a genetic issue. I know both types, there is a clear difference.
Jones is very intelligent. He knows what a person wants to hear.
Then he gets drunk and drives around looking for homo- I mean homeless people, just to "be nice to them". What a great guy
As a raging alcoholic, he just literally described my biggest hurdle. But as long as you're not having withdrawals, who cares, I guess? lol I feel like if he didn't have mma, he would have a serious drinking problem. Like, one that would hinder his ability to function.
The one thing i respect about Jon is his humbleness.
Thats the cocaine talking ❄️
Brother theres other drugs that do a better job than poison ToT
joe rogan need to be drug tested
Confucius says, if you don't control your drink, your drink will control you!.
5 years here and I still get tempted! Went to Cancun with my wife last summer and I said hey I can still drink in Mexico right? Started crying and asked myself why I felt like I needed it for so long. Lived that weekend warrior life for 20 years and had enough.
LOL, YOUR BETTER OFF SMMOKING WEED, THEN GET USE THAT TO DIRNK 1OR 2 OR 3 AND STOP.
EXPERINACE.
Damn. Liquid courage.
Doesn’t work like that lol I lost everything because of alcohol
Catch an uber to my car to drive drunk to my house…

He has the right to desire a healthy relationship with alcohol. And he may be wrong about it. Or maybe not. So many haters though.
i feel like i've heard this at a meeting before……
Bro did this age poorly or what?
Look how tall that white man is
