Here's how I handle the siren song of the customary evening glass of wine, or single malt. I don't drink at all while at home during the work week. I'm not anal retentive about it, I drink socially when I'm out with friends and chose not to be out with friends on an every evening basis in order to circumvent that "limitation". I was surprised how much energy is actually drained of you from drinking and how much more productive you can be during those evening hours. As an added bonus I sleep - and awake much better. I don't tend to compensate by drinking more on weekends. If there's a difference at all I probably drink less. For me such a schematic approach works quite well. It may not be for everybody.
