Are You Sick Of Your Smoking Habit?

You would think the answer to that would be fairly obvious - you just quit! But I am afraid that would be the answer you've already heard from countless others who have either never smoked in the first place or have never successfully quit themselves.

So here is my advice - from a smoker of twenty years and a non-smoker of ten.

It doesn't matter if you want to quit because you have smoker's cough; a serious health scare; desire a better environment for your children; or just want to quit for yourself because you know it is the right thing to do - the absolute first thing you must realize is that the desire to quit alone is not strong enough for most people - 97% in fact. I know you are desperate. I know you want to quit right now and at this moment, and I feel your pain. But I beg of you, don't do it!

The first step you need to take is to try and remove all emotion from the process. You should treat this clinically. Just as a doctor would look at the problem objectively, diagnose it and treat it accordingly without bringing in any emotion, you need to create a distance between your self and your habit. Your anger or desperation will not see you through the quitting process.

It is important that you write down all the emotions and reasons you want to quit while in this heightened state of awareness, but it is equally important that you only use those reasons to help you on your journey to becoming a non-smoker - not to try and keep yourself wound up.

Use your reasons instead to help you on your journey to becoming a non-smoker; your emotions will only keep you wound up.

Once you have the information you desire, I encourage you to find a stop smoking program that addresses your concerns about quitting and then purchase it. Whether that is the program I developed or someone else's, it does not matter as long as it appeals to your wants and needs and gives you the resolve to beat this nasty habit.

Also, look for a stop smoking program that addresses your concerns about quitting and then purchase it. Make sure, it is not the one that makes tall claims; they are not true. Buy the one that appeals to your wants and needs and gives you the determination to beat this nasty habit.

Buying a program and then leaving it in the package will do nothing other than keep you smoking because you have a stop smoking kit available that you will 'get to someday'. Someday is too late. Get the information you need - order a program - and use it. You'll be glad you did.

You'll be glad you did because it is the first step that is the most difficult. Once, you have taken the first step you will sail through the rest of the process.

Happy journey,

Darren Warmuth
