One day at a time , that's how the story goes

You start out  just surviving min to min , day to day and then one day at a time leads to  years quit . 

Did I ever think I'd make it ten years ? When I started no . When I was trying to quit , no . But when I told myself no more trying I am going to do it no matter what then I got serious about the choices I made . Choices that would keep me quit .

Every cigarette we ever put to our mouths was our choice so to stop the addiction is to make another choice . Take smoking off the table . Cigarettes are not on the table anymore  , not in your car , not in your purse or coat pocket or wherever you've saved and hid one  . One is what got you started smoking and it is no different if you are quitting . One will get you started .

Cigarettes aren't there because you don't do that anymore . You quit , remember that . You quit !  You won't go crazy without them but I will be honest quitting is hard and  you might feel  feel a bit  loonie for a few weeks but that is a relatively small price to pay for sanity health , wealth and a future that could give you several more years of being with family , friends and to make amends . Time to add things to your bucket list too and do them .

Pep talk lol cause I care .

Quitting will get easier when you surrender to the fact that this is what you came here to do and what you reached out here for support for . Being free was what you wanted .  You had a reason , a purpose and a goal when you came here so don't forget your reason a minute from now , use it as your drive to succeed . 

Don't cheat or give yourself any excuses to smoke  .  That's the breakthrough you've been waiting for .  No more excuses !  None ! Don't give up before you make that miracle happen.  

It is said only seven percent will beat nicotene addiction but I believe they are wrong . I believe only seven percent can't make it because they don't want to or they are just trying for others . They are either afraid of success or afraid of death 

Today marks 10 years two months for me . So grateful , you have no idea ! One day at a time did that .

Change your story right now if you want to give up .
