I believe that it is important that the moment you decide to quit smoking, you truly understand that you are freeing yourself. Perhaps easier said than done, we all have the choice to take it into action.
Tonight, I took the last pack out of a carton I had received from my grandmother as an early birthday present. Having a cigarette out of it I had been contemplating ridding myself of this habit that is a cause for un-necessary financial expendature. To boot the health benefits are very much favourable too.
Now I have been smoking for a little over nine years, with a rate of over a pack per day on average. I looked at the new pack and grabbed a pair of scissors and telling myself that I am through. Sounds like a real waste of $9 for a pack but it also has meaning. Since I found a way to part with this habit, I need to move forward.
I am sure after I sleep tonight I will want to regret smoking as cravings flow through me.... but I will make my best effort to keep my hands and mouth more occupied. Any suggestions? lol....
If you have quit, or are planning to quit, let me know how the progress does.
