*** Do Not Quit Smoking! Click Here *** Want to quit smoking? Cigarettes are terrible for your health, yet they're hard to let go of. Yet read on for some strategies and tools that can help you quit smoking for good. First of all, if want to stop smoking cigarettes, give yourself a big pat on the back. This is probably the single most important improvement you can make to achieve better health. I won't bore you with a list of reasons why you should stop smoking. Chances are you're all too familiar with them -- and have tried numerous times before, but without success. Why would this year be different? Let me give you a few important strategies that can really help you quit smoking and stay quit too: 1) You take the task of quitting smoking seriously What do I mean by that? Exactly what it says. Just because the non-smokers around you don't think it's a big deal doesn't mean they're right. In fact, kicking the smoking habit may be the most difficult thing you'll ever do. Smoking feeds your pleasure circuits in ways few other things do. And the withdrawal symptoms can be hellish. In fact, smoking is more addictive than heroin. And that doesn't even get to the social aspects of smoking -- the fact that it may be pleasurable, that it's part of your routine, that you may have built a social life around those cigarette breaks you take throughout the day, and so on. In fact, you may be worried that without smoking you won't get those breaks anymore. So the first step should be to acknowledge the enormity of what you're about to undertake -- and promise yourself to be gentle with yourself. AND to give yourself every tool you can to help you succeed. 2) Give yourself tools I stopped smoking myself -- many years ago. It was very hard. I stopped many times before I was able to make it stick. One thing that finally helped me do it was Nicorette chewing gum. That allowed me to separate the pleasurable part of smoking and the social aspects from the physically addictive part. I was able to deal with those first, while still getting my nicotine fix. But I hated the gum, so eventually, I relied on it less and less. I also acknowledged that this would be hard. I had proof of it too -- all those many attempts that led to a re-start of smoking. And if there's a special reason -- special to you -- that might motivate you to stick with it this time around, by all means, use it. Maybe you'd like to avoid wrinkles, or impotence, or the fact that each time you try to stop -- unsuccessfully -- you put on another 5 pounds. 3) Get MORE tools -- and support Give yourself some support. Whether it's a group or just some friends who are supportive of you. And then, consider that there are even more and better tools out there now to help you quit smoking than there have ever been before. Nicorette is available over the counter -- no more need for doctor's appointments and embarrassing admissions that you STILL need it. And there are new prescription drugs that may help you stop smoking cigarettes too.About the Author:
