The Mouse And The Quit

Lets break it down.

The right button on a windows mouse shows you what you can do but, the left button is where the rubber meets the road.

We are your right click. We give you all your options and I believe, if we can get you thinking outside of smoker's autopilot, you have a good foundation to succeed.

It's too early for scrolling. 🙂 that'll be for another time

But scrolling helps us find just what we need 😉

Thanks for that bit of inspiration today.

Thank you Dale, awesome and so very true.

No one going to mention 'escape" or 'ctrl-Alt-Delete?'  I'm afraid to use them now for fear what they might do to my quit.

I'm sorry Puff, keyboard shortcuts and hot keys are not discussed until the third year quit.

About the Author
Hello, My name is Dale. I was quit 18 months before joining this site and had participated on another site during that time. I learned a lot there and brought it with me. I joined this site the first week of August 2008. I didn't pressure myself to quit. HOW I QUIT I didn't count, I didn't deny myself to get started. When I considered quitting (at a friends request to influence his brother to quit), I simply told myself to wait a little longer. No denial, nothing painful. After 4 weeks I was down to 5 cigarettes from a pack a day. The strength came from proving to myself, I didn't need to smoke because I normally would have smoked. Simple yes? I bought the patch. I forgot to put one on on the 4th day. I needed it the next day but the following week I forgot two days in a row I put one in my wallet with a promise to myself that I would slap it on and wait an hour rather than smoke. It rode in my wallet my first year.There's nothing keeping any of you from doing this. It doesn't cost a dime. This is about unlearning something you've done for a long time. The nicotine isn't the hard part. Disconnecting from the psychological pull, the memories and connected emotions is. :-) Time is the healer.
