Quitting smoking is really not an easy feat to achieve, but if you are willing to leave off the habit you can do it with ease. However, when you decide to stop there is a need to stay away from all appearances of cigarette.
For instance, hanging around people who smoke is a sure way to get back into the habit. How about you change your friends, especially if they are not as interested in quitting as you are? Spend more time around people with healthier habits, and reorient your mind. Trust me, you will be glad you did.
One thing that most smokers will have to always contend with is the withdrawal symptoms that accompany quitting. However, when that monster rears its ugly head again, kick it in with a bout of something else that you love to do; something that will take your mind away to something else. The urge to smoke will surely come back another time, but just go on ahead and do the same thing all over again. That is the best way to deal with the urge.
You got yourself into smoking, you can get yourself out; but don't go thinking that it is a piece of cake, because it isn't. You will have to change a whole lot of your daily living habits if you are looking to make it stick, otherwise the feelings will come rushing back, and this time you might not be able to resist it.
If you feel like smoking, you could say some encouraging words to yourself, and then simply refuse to pick up the stick. This takes a bit of conscious effort, but it works.
