Hi Kane,
I know how hard it is to be a single Mom and starting a new business. It's not easy. But, let me ask you this.....are your children and your business worth all the effort you put into them? If, like I think they are, you have learned that everything worthwhile in life takes an effort. Well, believe me when I say that quitting smoking is very, very, worthwhile. It is the best decision you could ever make in your life.....both for yourself and your child or children. We can always find an excuse to coninue a bad habit you have developed. It's easier to continue.....change is more difficult. We are afraid to change because it is the unknown. Take a risk and try it......set a quit date. Before you quit, cut back on your cigarettes. The first week delay your first cigarette by 15 minutes. The second week, delay your first cigarette by another 15 minutes.....and so forth. Don' allow yourself to smoke in your car. If you need a cigarette, stop and get out of your car. Start changing your addictive behaviors and thoughts. If you have coffee with your cigarette, drink your coffee in another room and don't have the cigarette with it. If you have a cigarette after you eat, eat in a different room and have a cigarette outside. Change those behaviors which go with the cigarette. YOU CAN DO THIS!! My goodness, if you can raise a child/children on your own, you can quit smoking!! You are strong, you just have to believe you are.
If you need any help we are all here for you. Write on here often to keep your focus, vent your frustrations and acknowledge your successes!!
