\"\"Just like nicotine<\/a> snuck into your system, you have to use the same wily ways to trick it out of your life.<\/p>\n

There’s a lot of easy ways of doing this. Get your notepad (or notepad app) ready.<\/p>\n

Don’t Buy a Pack<\/h6>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

if you buy a packet of chips<\/a>,
you’ll want to eat most of it (if not all). While it’s not
chip-addiction we’re cracking down on, the formula is the same. If you
buy one cigarette , you’ll channelize your laziness (into buying another
one) to actually reduce your time between cigarettes.<\/p>\n

Smoke only Half a Cigarette Each Time<\/h6>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I don’t have to explain the 50% off on your health.<\/p>\n

Remove the ashtrays<\/h6>\n

The tradition of easing into your comfy chair with a cigarette and a
ashtray- nix it. Throw away your lighters too. Make smoking a chore, an
annoying bodily necessity.<\/p>\n

Enlist Fellow Quitters<\/h6>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Peer pressure got you into smoking, now use the same devilish social
conditioning to have the pressure of your fellow man’s expectations of
you. You can pool in your anti-smoking resources and motivate each
other.<\/p>\n

Exercise<\/h6>\n

It’s a simple chemical reaction. Smoking => Nicotine => Dopamine in your brain => Happiness<\/a>. If you’re already feeling good after enjoyable exercise (it can even be jumping with your kids, as long as you love it)<\/p>\n

Change your Brand<\/h6>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

You’re overriding the love you have of a specific blend of tobacco with something your throat will chemically dislike.<\/p>\n

Smoke Alone<\/h6>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If smoking was bonding time<\/a>
with fellow addicts, smoking alone will force you to have less of a
reason. On a deeper level, it will show it’s reality as an addiction.<\/p>\n

Write down each Cigarette Smoked<\/h6>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Pressure<\/a>“
motivates a lot of clicks of the lighter. Write down the things that
made you want to light up in the first place. Start addressing those.<\/p>\n

Smoke Free Zones<\/h6>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Libraries, cultural centers and cinema halls are all places where
smoking is banned. Hang out at such smoke-free zones – the entertainment
options will distract you from smoking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
