Hi, Giving up smoking now

nsd_user663_64189 profile image

Hi,

I have just given up smoking. Been smoking for 10 years. Tried to give up so many times and failed. I'm determined todo it this time on e and for all.

This may be kind of a weird thing todo but I started a youtube channel tracking quitting smoking and changing my life around.

Good luck with everything, I hope that both the quitting, job hunting and everything else fall into place for you.

The key to quitting smoking is to make a conscious effort to change the way you think about smoking, instead of seeing quitting as making a sacrifice and depriving yourself then look on it as a positive thing regaining health, wealth and control. If you constantly battle against thoughts that you are denying yourself a great pleasure then one day you'll have a what the ***k moment and spark up. The objective is to make smoking simply something that you used to do and something that you are content not to be doing any more.

17th July is an awesome date to quit, BTW ;)
