Have you ever asked yourself what you are quitting for? Why is
it that you are quitting smoking?

Are you quitting for your health? Your doctor? Your family?
Your pocketbook?

What’s that? You don’t really know for sure why you are
quitting? I hope you DO know why you are quitting. Every
smoker should have a reason for quitting. You may have some
vague thoughts in your mind that you are quitting because “it’s
bad for me” or because “my wife wants me to.”

Smoking habits in most cases have to do with psychological addiction. It is not the lack of nicotine that represents the hardest obstacle to quit smoking. Though overcoming the physical cravings for nicotine can be difficult, overcoming psychological addiction to smoking can be even more challenging. A couple of weeks after you have stopped smoking, your body doesn’t crave nicotine anymore, which means that the physical addiction is over. What remains is the physical manifestation of tobacco addiction, and this often seems so challenging that it sets aside the power of your own mind.

3. Create a Success Circle

Another way to be successful in any endeavor is to surround yourself with like-minded people, a mastermind group if you will.

In this case, they don’t all have to be people who are quitting at the same time as you. In fact, people who do not smoke and who share some of the same interests and ideas as you would be best suited to your group for this purpose.

You needn’t make a big deal out of your decision to quit smoking. But if you do tell your friends about it, it could keep you from allowing yourself to backslide.

Use the leverage at your disposal and have your friends monitor your progress. Sometimes just the thought of having your peers see you go back on your word will be enough to deter any thoughts of backsliding. After all, you want to be seen as a person of your word, don’t you?

Fear is a part of everyone’s life. Fear is both good and bad
depending on the situation. Fear can help keep you alive if you
must flee from a dangerous situation. Fear can keep you from
doing things that would endanger your safety or wellbeing, such
as driving too fast or robbing a bank.

But fear is mostly a limiting factor in most people’s lives. Are
you afraid of trying out for the school play or baseball team?
Are you afraid of going to the job interview? Are you afraid of
meeting new people? I could go on forever listing common fears
that keep people from achieving their dreams and goals. Fear is
so common, so limiting and so devastating that it’s important to
determine what your own fears are when it comes to quitting
smoking.

Company.

You’re hearing it from all directions: “Quit smoking!” But the
heck with that! You’re going to smoke until the day you die,
right? Here’s how to “fight back” against the tyrants and
authority establishment that is trying to make you quit.

First, you must never believe that quitting smoking is possible.
On the contrary, no one has ever quit smoking. Once you’ve had
one puff, you’re hooked for life. Might as well just start
smoking even if you only inhale some second-hand smoke. You see,
if you believe you can quit smoking, then you might actually try
to do something about it. Believing is the first, most important
step to becoming an evil “non-smoker”. So don’t believe what you
hear from anyone else. Don’t believe your own gut-instinct that
tells you that you do have the ability to quit. You don’t! It’s
impossible! Forget it!

What Danger do We Face From Tobacco Use?

As smokers, we learn early on to put up a mental wall of denial between our smoking
habit and the harsh reality of the damage we’re inflicting on ourselves with every cigarette smoked.

We tell ourselves lies that allow us smoke with some level of comfort. We say we have time to quit…that cancer doesn’t run in our family…that we can quit any time we want to…that the bad things happen to other people. And because smoking is typically a slow killer, those lies support the framework of our wall of denial for years and years.

Eventually though, most smokers find that the wall begins to crumble, and bit by bit, smoking becomes a fearful, anxious activity. This is when most smokers start seriously thinking about how they might find a way to quit smoking for good.

Being able to quit smoking can be accomplished by merely the power of suggestion. For smokers, cigarettes are very important. Even with the rising costs and numerous health warnings, smokers still do not ever leave home without them. Most smokers do want to quit, some have even made several failed attempts, and others go to successfully quit but trade the smoking health related problems for an extra 40 or 50 pounds.

Smoking is an emotional and psychological issue, so when a person quits and claims that the main reason that they quit was because of health issues or expenses, that is the wrong approach as they should focus on quitting as a positive reinforcement and plan to look to the future. Hypnotherapy has been very successful in helping people stop smoking.
