The best way out is always through.
Robert Frost

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude. 
Thomas Jefferson

 

The Best way to Quit, is to plow through the cravings, the pain, just keep going, don't stop to think about wanting a smoke. When you stop moving, the cravings kick in. always keep your hands busy so they don't reach for what is killing you. Tell yourself that you can do it. The Power of Positive Thinking is beyond your imagination. It really works so tell yourself you are doing great and that you are strong , and wow, you will do great and be strong!! If you tell yourself that smoking is bad and it will kill you, you won't want to smoke,, but if you tell yourself that you miss it, and without it you feel lonely, I think that you are setting yourself up to go back to it. I do NOT miss smelling bad, actually there is NOTHING about smoking that I miss. What I love about this new life of mine is the ability to slow down and enjoy everything. I'm not rushing through things anymore because I want to go smoke. We  have to completely change the way we think about cigs,,because if you miss them in anyway, then I don't believe you will stay quit,, Bless You all, and Stay Strong, Jamie
