The DaveStuff Quitting Smoking Program

There are tons of methods of getting off the evil smokes... The tobacco companies have entire quiting smoking websites up there to help their customers quit... (Funny huh?) And I'll be the first to admit... It's VERY hard to quit smoking...

Here is my program to quit smoking...
  • Buy a carton of smokes
  • Choose a quit date that corresponds to the last pack.
  • Continue smoking like you always do on the last carton. BUT....
  • Before EVERY cig... Say to yourself (audibly) "I have a desire to smoke, I have a choice, I choose to smoke" Then go ahead and smoke.
  • During this time make a list of things that you feel are good about smoking... And a list of things you feel are bad about smoking.
  • On your quit date you acknowledge that you have a desire to smoke... But that you choose NOT to smoke....
  • Keep the last pack from the carton in your home ready to smoke with a lighter for 6 months... But choose... Not to smoke...
  • Stay in prayer for God to deliver you from the "obsession" to smoke...
That's it!
Sounds easy huh?
