When my wife got pregnant, I got serious about finding a way to stop smoking. I mean, it was one thing when it was just my health I was risking – I always went outside to smoke, so that my wife wouldn’t get second hand smoke. But now that we have a little one on the way, it’s different. I want to be around to see her grow up, get her first tooth, get married, all of those things. I don’t want to miss out, so I’m going to stop smoking. Better for my health, better for hers, and better for my wife’s.

There is no doubt that people now realize the impact of smoking on their health. The sad fact is that many choose to do something about it far too late.

NLP is very interesting to say the least and I can see how it could be hugely beneficial for those striving to overcome bad habits.

I also like the list exercise you have outlined in this post. keeping that list with you at all times is just downright smart.

Hey Tim,

congrats, this is a very nice and informative post.
I consider myself lucky because I don’t smoke, and my parents don’t smoke either. The majority of my class doesn’t smoke. However, everyone knows smokers, and so do I. Many of these say that smoking calms them down. That might be true. In the past, I can remember two or three cases of extreme stress when I also bought some cigarettes. However, when you start to regularly smoke, that effect disappears.. it’ll no longer be a tool, rather a need. You only have the illusion that it calms you down, because whenever you don’t get your daily (hourly?) dose of cigarette, you are nervous.

Everyone merits to realize this, and I honestly hope that those of you who smoke and want to quit will be able to do so!

Best wishes,
Zoli

@ Tamsin – Thanks for the feedback and glad to hear you won that battle! I’ve never been a smoker, but I have given up some other bad habits and its seldom easy.

@ Jess – LOL, I had a vision of you locked away in your home with your friends banging on the door for a moment. Probably never happened, but such is my brain ;-)
