How To Quit Smoking Tips And Tricks
So you have tried but have ultimately not succeeded, you are still a smoker and fear that you will always be one. You are aware that you should quit the fags but just do not seem to have the willpower. Well in this article I will be giving my own free tips and tricks, as I call them, which I hope will help, at least one person, to stop smoking.
I am not personally involved within the “stop smoking” industry; I actually provide personal injury claims process advice, cheap holidays as well as a professional DVD authoring service.
I believe in the power of “goal setting” especially when attempting something as big as quitting smoking. I would always start any attempt at the start of the week or at the start of a month. Each day you successfully do not smoke mark it on a calendar or in a diary. There is one major thing to remember, if after, let’s say, a week of non smoking you fall off the wagon and have a cigarette, for whatever reason, do not let this be the excuse to start smoking twenty a day again!. Treat this as just a hiccup, as they say, something which will not happen again.
Smoking is basically just a bad habit. People like to smoke as soon as they leave work, after they have eaten a meal, as soon as they wake up in the morning or whenever they drink coffee, as you can see it is a cycle that needs to be broken. To do this we have to replace the cigarette with something else, this could be a biscuit, for example. This may well sound bonkers to the readers of this article however a quick tip is to clean your teeth when you feel you want a ciggie. Yes it does sound crazy but it also works for a lot of people.
It is a good idea to write down all of the reasons why you want to quit smoking. These are likely to include health, the cost, the way it makes your clothes smell, the stigma of being a smoker and protection of your teeth. Every time that you are about to have a cigarette and therefore fail in your quest to quit it is then when you take this list, have a good read, as a reminder of why you are doing it.
