The Commitment

The Commitment is:    There are no excuses.  There are no 'ifs', 'thoughs', 'maybes,'  nor 'buts.'  No 'couldn'ts', 'can'ts', 'didn'ts', 'wouldn'ts' and especially no 'because ofs'. There is no "wishing,' 'trying' and 'hoping.'   Those are qualifiers for failure.  There can be whining, railing, ranting, sobbing, laughing, jerking, sleeping, questions, poetry, loss of concentration, jokes, songs, photos, hissing, bad sleep and bad moods.  We can deal with that.  What we don't want to have to deal with on here is your relapse.  SO DON'T!!!!

Member since MAY 2008. I quit smoking March 1, 2006. I smoked a pack and a half a day for about 35 years. What did it take to get me smoke free? Perseverance, a promise not to smoke, and a willingness to be uncomfortable for as long as it took to get me to where I am today. I am an Ex but I have not forgotten the initial difficult journey of this rite of passage. That's one of the things that's keeping me proudly smoke free. I don't want to ever have another Day 1 again. You too can achieve your goal of being finally free forever. Change your mind, change your habits, alter your focus, release the myths you hold about smoking. And above all - keep your sense of hewmer. DAY WON - NEVER ANOTHER DAY ONE. If you still want one - you're still vulnerable. Protect your quit!
