It is possible. I'm 5 years dry; for me the answer was one day at a time, and maintaining the discipline.
Don't look for motivation, it's fickle.
It's not the same for everyone and it's not easy. Be kind to yourself and if you fall off, get back on.

Good luck.
Thanks, interesting. Not the very same, the one I remember was really about the wizard controlling the winds - but that's still an interesting story!
In the 70s we had a cassette tape kids story about a wizard who lived in a mountain and kept all the winds in a box.
The story was about someone who went in and retrieved the winds.
It involved blowing up sections of passageways (the narrator talked of lighting the blue touchpaper), and the wizard woke up and chased the hero.
He had a walking stick so his steps were reproduced including that, and he was calling, "My wind! Somebody's stolen my wind!".
I think it was probably on the front of a magazine or something. I don't know if it's a traditional story or something written for that production but I thought it was brilliant at the time.
Perfect :)
Fast! Page isn't loading for me now in Chrome or FF (loads but the scroll will not).
Nice work! Quick typo on your website - should be, 'anything you can imagine', not 'anything you can image'.
I'm interested in what other people have found to be the fastest way to deliver events into HA. It's been a useful thread.
I have a wired device sending HTTP POST updates very regularly (often more than one per second) and if I watch those arrive, they appear almost instantaneous. If the sending device used IP (or, more likely, had cached the lookup) I guess that would be fast too.
Good point about the MQTT persistence, cheers.
It's probably marginally faster from the dashboard. This isn't only about the ZigBee delay though - it's really perfectly OK. Reducing latency is as much for the fun of it than anything else. I'm interested in knowing what the fastest possible input method is.
That's a good point; the button does support double push, I might be able to disable that. It's some old unit I picked up for next to nothing, I have some Aqura buttons about to try.
