'You look at yourself in the mirror and you know the number one priority in your life is to stay sober.'
, Billy is not only the best version of himself, but he's making it a point to help others who find themselves grappling with an alcohol addiction.
"I just literally looked myself in the mirror and said, 'I'm not going to do this anymore. I'll never reach my potential if I keep going down this path.'""I just literally looked myself in the mirror and said, 'I'm not going to do this anymore. I'll never reach my potential if I keep going down this path.' It was the first time I admitted to myself I have a problem," explained Billy.
"The only difference between the person I'm sitting next to sometimes is the fact that I got luckier. I never got pulled over, I never got arrested for making bad choices." He continued:"You look at yourself in the mirror and you know the number-one priority in your life is to stay sober. Because if you're not, everything else in life falls apart."Regardless of your age, leading a life of sobriety usually involves some tough conversations with people you love. Although Billy was incredibly nervous about opening up to his friends, looking back, it was one of the best decisions he's ever made.
