Share your quitting journey
My strengths versus weakness - not sure really what to call this blog of mine....
Sometimes this is sort of like my self assessment that I need to write for my job.
You know the one that says blah blah blah and why I can do this or that....
We all go through it at some point either at work or what ever I need to conquer.
Well I found that once I cried my old self away and looking back at what it cause me to lose and win in some respect.
I learned there was a stronger person inside of me one that can stand tall and fall down a few times.
Since I stopped smoking and looked back and seen the progress I made smoking no longer in the picture.
I thought at one time they were on hold but nah that wasn't the case either.
I was meant to stop and see what life was about unfortunately it took away some of my motivation.
I am slowly learning to take back a sense of awareness that I hadn't really felt before.
I didn't really choose to quit per say --- I was told to quit or truly suffer more than I could muster.
Well the weakness lost as I no longer pay or try to smoke any longer.
I try to treat people the way I want to be treated.
Can you tell me or share with us some of your strengths versus weakness since you stopped smoking?
I spent a lot of time on quitnet which helped me understand what I am going through.
I know they are packing up and no longer going to be available resource soon.
I did learn that pledging daily and offering what my triumphs and downfalls were truly helped others.
I also learned there were others like me with the same health issues and battles I wasn't alone.
I have a feeling that I am not alone here either and that the support I have received or will receive will keep me in a positive light.
I am not ready to share my health battles quite yet as I am not going to be defined by my chronic illness.
Each day I learn to cope and become stronger and a better person.
Motivation is definitely a key - now if I can only finish that darn work self assessment.
I will get there in time and thank you for taking the time to read my blog.
Life is a journey we either follow it through or get lost in the darkness.
