The begin continues

A couple of slip ups and a resolve to continue not smoking. I took the daily pledge for 12 hours. It'll be bedtime then. I can make it and will. 

Today, I will read a few more chapters of Carr as a nonsmoker. Tomorrow morning, I will address my coffee smoke-free. That's as far ahead as I can pledge. 

I have a production meeting at the theater tonight, so that will begin my no smoking in the car. 

I'm looking at my personal life and picking out moments when I would have smoked. I don't want to avoid my routines, but do want to keep them from being triggers. This may take a bit to figure out, but I will not let it trip me up today.

Today is the thing. One moment, one hour, one day. 

The determination is strong!

It is easier to not smoke if you don't have any around.  Get rid of everything smoke related - cigarettes, lighters, ashtrays, etc.  If you live with a smoker, ask them to keep their smoking supplies put up and out of your sight.  Also ask them to not smoke around you.  You can do this!   Like the saying goes - "It is not easy - but it is doable!"

You can and will be successful one precious smoke free day at a time or one minute or even one second at a time, as long as you keep moving forward and stacking up your precious smoke free day days then each evening you can look yourself in the mirror and smile because you made it through another DAY WON.
