Four days without smoking, I need a pat on my back.
HOW AM I DOING IT?
Your mind is a serious thing. I've been keeping myself busy with no idle time to even think about smoking. Just by being active on steemit helps. I don't have the urge to smoke, yet! Holy cow, am actually doing it. Staying busy, keeping a positive attituded and not allowing current life circumstances to led me astray.
Speak with confidence
Knowing within myself I can kick the habit of smoking helps. I keep telling myself, you got this! Even lying, telling myself saying "it's easy". Is that a good thing? I don't know, it feels easy or does it feel this way because I am constantly telling myself this?
6 hours later
I started writing this post during my lunch break but off course, duty calls and I was unable to finish. I am now home and I am BEAT aka tired. The last few hours of work was stressful and on top of that blah blah....nevermind. 
After a typical day like today, I would be high right now. High, trying to get some work done, scrolling the web, doing researching, watching a youtube video listening to other people talk about how they got their success and in between facebook and other social media sites. After about an two hours of that I would be to the point where I just wanted to eat, watch TV and relax.
Not today! A little voice in my head was telling me, you need a drink but I am not trying to go down that road.
Do not replace one bad habit with another
My eyes are on the prize and like I said in my introduction post I am quitting my job come January 2018. I don't have the time to waste watching useless TV or relaxing for that matter. Time for ACTION!
I am on a journey to financial freedom and I am serious about achieving this goal. To accomplish these things I must make these neccessary changes, there is no way around it. It's only going to happen through hardwork and dedication, you have to commit.
I applaud you for taking on this journey. Smoking is nasty habit!
Yeah, I have nothing against people who smoke but for me, my productively level was at -3 and that right there was enough to make me stop.
Keep up the good work girl! I'm on day fifteen of quitting smoking cigarettes, and have managed not to replace it with a different habit, so I know you can do it! Looking forward to updates! x

We got this girly. Is this your first attempt to quit?
Um, my first real attempt yes, and so far, I still haven't bought a pack, though I have caved and smoked when I've drank. I think it's important though when you slip, not to just pack it up and give back in, keep going!

You're right! I tried slowing down and failed miserably. Now, am all in and shit it's not hard at all. My appetite is all frigged up but that's about it.
Thank you very much for this post.
