Unstoppable

Are you unstoppable when it comes to quitting nicotine?

Does a setback make you want to just chuck it all?

It doesn't have to be like that.

Set your mind to never touching another sickorette.

If you do light one, remember what led you to do so and plan for the next time that situation arises.

Strengthen your resolve to quit and start over again.

You can do it.

Imagine where some of us would be if we just gave up when a medical condition hit us.

Heart conditions, COPD, RA, Barrett's, Aneurysms, or any of the other medical conditions that we have.

I'm sure that the thought crossed some of our minds for a minute, but, we overcame them and carried on.

In the words of the song, be unstoppable when it comes to your quit.

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
