And guess what - even highly motivated people - people who are "doing things with their lives" like to get drunk sometimes. It's fun - or can be.

The idea that truly psychologically healthy go-getting individuals should abstain from all pleasures (wanking? drinking? heroin?) seems a bizzarre idea, probably a remnant of Christian/Protestant ethics.
You are just trying to justify your own behaviour, you do realise that don't you?
