What ACTUALLY made you quit?

I'm curious to know about other peoples' stories. It's been just over a week since my last smoke, and I was thinking about what it was that ACTUALLY made me quit today--the straw that broke the camel's back. The strange thing is that I can't really find an answer. I remember lying in bed after having smoked my last cigarrette, contemplating quiting right before falling asleep, much I like I had many other times. I remember saying to myself, "Okay, why not try. Just humor yourself and see how far you can go without one." 

I didn't think anything of it and went to bed that night fully expecting to wake up feeling like shit and reaching for the coffee and cigarettes, but for whatever reason, when the alarm went off the next morning I stuck with it. I'm blown away by how the mind works sometimes. 

Anyways, just curious to know what was going through your mind when you finally decided to quit. Hope you're all doing well and staying strong!
