I'm not going to tell you how bad it is for you, how it will ruin your health and send you to your grave earlier than you'd like. You know it all, you've heard it all. So;
1. Make the decision to quit right now.
2. Throw your cigarettes away, right now
3. Throw your matches and lighters away,
4. Make an appointment with your doctor to discuss treatment options.
5. Get a patch, get a pill, whatever your doctor recommends.
6. Set a reward for yourself as an incentive to quit smoking and it should
be something that can be purchased with the money you save from not feeding
your habit.
7. Find a picture or photo to remind you of the reward you'll give yourself
for quitting.
8. Find a picture or photo of the person you want to be after you've quit for
good, it could be a picture of a healthy person, a picture of a mountain you
want to be able to climb without coughing and wheezing.
9. Tell kids you're quitting- because they will remind you if they see you
light up and you'll feel like a total loser if a kid reminds you you're
supposed to be quitting.
10. Tell everyone you're quitting and give them the right to sabotage you if
they find a pack anywhere.
11. Get a friend to quit with you- so you have support.
12. If you don't have a friend to help you out- join a support group. Don't be
ashamed, the shame doesn't compare to the joy of healthy living.
13. Don't quit.
14. If you slip up- a genuine slip up, then don't bash yourself up and don't
hide it. Tell your support group and other people you have trusted to keep
you accountable and CONTINUE with this journey.
Resolve2day to quit smoking. Trust me, you’ll feel like a much better person at the end of this day.
