Let's consider 5 best ways or tricks to quit cigarettes fast without drugs.

In the first one write down all the smoke-related diseases you have heard about. In the second one write down what are your own motivations to stop smoking. In the third one you can put all the benefits you will have to be free of that bad habit. Keep this piece of paper with you and read it as many times as you can every day in order to boost your motivation level. Think positive.Let your family and friends know you are planning to stop smoking.

3) Avoid Temptations



First at all, throw out all cigarettes and ashtrays from your home, car and office. Ask yourself: 'In my case, what will be an incitement to smoke? Drinking a coffee? What else?' If your friends are smokers, ask them to quit smoking with you. If they are genuine friends, they will respect your decision. The rule is the follow one: Do not put yourself into any kind of situation where you could be tempted to smoke.



4) Apply the Substitution Method
