This Is IT!

What ought one to say then as each hardship comes? I was practicing for this, I was training for this. Epictetus (55-135 AD) Greek Philosopher O.K. So you made up your mind that you are sick of being sick! You're tired of worrying about all the terrible abuse you have been putting your poor one and only body through! You just want to STOP THE ADDICTION NOW! But how are you going to do this? All of society tells us how hard it is to quit! "Quitting Sucks!" they say! "You need our product to help you! You don't stand a chance without spending hundreds more bucks to reach your goal!You can never do this on your own!" Well, I'm here to tell you that although NRTs (Nicotine Replacement Therapies) are useful TOOLS for very many people and others have been able to incorporate Chantix, Wellbutrin and other prescription meds successfully into their Quit Plan - those products didn't make the QUIT happen! You and I are ADDICTS! And like all addicts, we have to learn how to live differently - how to make different decisions for ourselves - in order to truly be SUCCESSFUL! It's not something that money can buy! It's a way of LIFE that we have to LEARN! That's why I repeat: Unless you are willing to READ about ATTITUDE and PERCEPTION you are spinning your wheels in Quit Attempts! Most likely, if you're reading this then you have "tried" to quit several times before! So when what you're keep trying doesn't change - the results don't change either! It's time to try something NEW! Try understanding the Addictive Mind! Try understanding the ADDICT in YOU! Try finding out how you can let that part of you wither away and the FREE HUMAN BEING within Grow and Grow and GROW! Here's where to get started: http://www.whyquit.com http://quitsmokingonline.com/ and Allen Carr's book - "The Easy Way To Stop Smoking" - free download - http://joga.365.lt/Allen-Carr_Easy-Way-To-Stop- Smoking_Download-free-PDF-EBook Am I saying you can't use patches or gum or Chantix or hypnotism, or whatever? ABSOLUTELY NOT! Use anything it takes that you find useful to your Quit Plan! But I am saying You have to HAVE A QUIT PLAN First! ATTITUDE and PERCEPTION! YOU have held the key to SUCCESS the whole time! You just didn't know it!
