The first thing you have to do is give up for yourself, not because you feel you have to due to peer pressure or financial difficulties, you MUST want to give up!

The second thing is to set a firm date on which you will finally stub out the last of those dreaded cigarettes. Very few people manage to just STOP instantly but this is certainly not for everyone, for most people it’s best to approach it with some kind of plan in mind!

Third on the list to do is make a shortlist of the reasons you want to quit including your own health and those around you, your family, your children and your grandchildren, this helps to strengthen reason one above and gives you more courage and conviction to break that habit and quit for good!

Number Four and one of the most important is to drink lots of water. This will help flush toxins out of your system flushed clean will help rid to toxins from smoking out of your system and hopefully help convince your brain it doesn’t need a top of nicotine. Try and take gentle exercise during each day, this not only makes you feel better and more refreshed but again it divers the brains cravings.

Item 5 If you are going to try and lessen your smoking day by day then let someone else look after your packet of cigarettes, otherwise its pretty certain that temptation will be to great and you’ll put it off for another day, but if you have to ask someone every time you want to smoke it greatly reduces the chance of failure.

Point Six You must do everything you can to get support in your campaign to give up smoking for good. Family, Friends, People you work with need to know that you are trying to quit and that you are serious! Hopefully they can help and support you when, especially when your resolve weakens!

Number Seven As soon as you decide to quit it’s very important to consider yourself to be a “Non Smoker”. It’s easy to imagine your home smelling fresher, your car not being an ashtray on wheels etc etc, these positive thoughts help immensely

Number Eight It’s very important to keep clear of anywhere that will be smoky and stay away from friends who smoke, the less temptation you face on a day to day basis the more chance you have of actually succeeding and becoming that “Ex Smoker” you dreamed of!

Number Nine calculate how much you spend on smoking over a year and promise yourself you’ll spend some of that saving on a treat for yourself, this could be a vacation, a new TV, Gaming Console etc etc - give yourself a target to aim for with a prize at the end!

Last but not least at number 10 It’s back to number one really: YOU have to do is give up for yourself, not because you feel you have to due to peer pressure or financial difficulties, YOU MUST WANT TO GIVE UP!
