Want To Quit Smoking Now? Repeat These Words...


To quit smoking now is something that can be done only if one is truly prepared. There is an old saying that says “well begun is half done,” and the same thing rings true in the matter of quitting as well.
So let us hit the different buttons that are part of the preparation. It is not just enough that you know that you are trying to quit smoking. All those who move around closely with you must be let into your plan.

This includes your family, your friends, your colleagues and even your boss. Now, that might sound a bit strange, what has your boss got to do with your attempt to quit smoking?

The answer is simple, if you tell your boss that you are trying to quit smoking it gives you one more reason to go for it with a resolute mind because nobody would want to stand sheepishly in front of a boss and say, “I gave up.”

But the key is Do NOT Take It Lightly. Smoking is not a joke and quitting is even a more serious affair so it is best that you approach the problem with the utmost seriousness.

It would be best if you prepared yourself mentally, emotionally and physically for the change. And it doesn't stop with that. You should also prepare your surroundings. Get rid of anything and everything that reminds you of smoking. This includes things like ashtrays.

It would also be a good idea to put up signs and reminders that smoking is injurious to health and that you are trying to quit smoking so that you really get the hang of it.

Try to come up with original stuff if you want. If you can make them funny then it is going to be all the better, but these signs should also be morale boosters, they should make you feel good about what you are trying to do and should make you feel that it is worth the effort.

You could try messages like: · “Only the BRAVE HEARTS can quit smoking!” · “I said YES to life today when I said NO to Nicotine” · “SMOKE has 5 letters...so does DEATH”

Or my personal favorite: I said NO to my daily SMOKE 'Cos this life of mine is not a joke I want to live on like an oak Smokers' lives end early in coughs and chokes

This last bit is something I penned when I was trying to quit smoking. I'll be the first to admit that it's corny, but it proved to be very useful for me, and I hope it will for you too.

Even a corny poem can be a big help to you emotionally when you're trying to quit smoking now.
