Being a smoker is like being lost in a maze.

And to find the exit, you necessarily need a plan!

So, you want to say goodbye to cigarettes once and for all?

Fortunately, there are some easy tips to help you figure out this maze ...

Without further ado, here are the top 10 tips for stop smoking :

1. Set a specific date and time for your last cigarette

Pick a specific date and time to quit smoking.

Next, continue to smoke as usual, until the date of your stop.

But, above all, do not try to reduce your consumption before the date in question!

Why ? Because smoking less only increases the so-called "pleasure" associated with each cigarette.

2. Rejoice that you are no longer a smoker

Quitting smoking is NOT about making a sacrifice. Because concretely, cigarettes do not bring us nothing.

Some believe that cigarettes bring pleasure. Others see them as a kind of crutch that helps them cope with times of stress.

But in reality, cigarettes simply make us addicted, and turn us into slaves of nicotine ...

So tell yourself once and for all: by quitting smoking, you do not give up ANYTHING. On the contrary, there is only positive on the horizon ...!

You are going to have better health, more energy, more money, more self-confidence, more self-respect and more freedom.

But above all, you increase your life expectancy, to spend more time with those who love you.

Reality ? Is that you go love be a non-smoker. And this, from the moment you crush your last cigarette :-)

3. Take one last cigarette and make a solemn vow

Tell yourself that in fact you are not giving up anything. You are getting rid of something that is cluttering your life. You can quit smoking, and easily.

So mark the occasion, light one last cigarette and make a solemn vow :

"Whatever the ups and downs of life, I will never smoke a cigarette again."

This is one of the most important decisions you will have to make, as the length and quality of your life directly depends on it.

Plus, you know quitting smoking is a good decision, the moment you make it.

There is no doubt that you are making a good choice, so don’t question it!

4. Rest assured: weaning is light and passes quickly!

Yes, it takes a few days for your body to wean itself off from nicotine.

But don't panic, that doesn't mean you're going to be depressed, or that you are going to want to smoke.

Know that the physical symptoms of withdrawal are very mild. They are not associated with pain and they pass quickly.

In fact, smokers suffer from these symptoms throughout their life as smokers! But non-smokers never suffer from it.

Now that you are a non-smoker, you will soon be free from it forever.

So a word of advice, don't torture your mind with thoughts like:

"I'm not going to be able to smoke a cigarette with my coffee anymore."

Indeed, smokers often tend to associate their cigarette with a break at work, or having a coffee or a drink on the terrace. Instead, try telling yourself:

"This is great, I can finally enjoy the moment without having a cigarette in my hand ... and without suffocating me! "

5. Don't change your social life and don't avoid smokers

Don't avoid social situations where you used to smoke.

Indeed, no need to avoid smokers, because you will no longer want to smoke a cigarette.

On the contrary, you must immediately confront social situations where it will be impossible not to be surrounded by smokers.

Why ? Otherwise, you will have great difficulty in saying no to smoking when you resume your normal life.

So, from the start, go out and enjoy every social occasion. Hang on and don't envy your smoking friends… have mercy on them.

In reality, it is them who will envy you! Each of them would like to be like you: finally free from the prison of smoking.

No one wants their children to start smoking, especially smokers. This means that they too regret having become smokers ...

Remember, as a non-smoker, you don't deprive yourself of anything.

It is these poor smokers who deprive themselves of their health, their energy, their money, their serenity, their self-confidence, their courage, their self-respect ... and who deprive themselves of their freedom.

So, if you are offered a cigarette, you don't have to start a long conversation about how long you've been smoke-free.

Simply answer: "No thanks, I don't smoke."

Just because you've been quit smoking for a while doesn't mean you're the "intruder" at a party.

We have to take responsibility. You don't smoke anymore, period.

6. Don't try to "not think" about smoking because it doesn't work

It's logic. If I say to you, “Don't think of the beach,” what do you think? At the beach, of course!

So, don't even try to "think about" smoking, because it will NEVER work. Thinking about cigarettes is completely normal, don't resist it.

When you think about it, don't say to yourself, "Here, I'd smoke a cigarette."

Instead, try to say to yourself, "It's unbelievable, I no longer have need To smoke. I no longer have desire To smoke. Hooray, I am a non-smoker !"

Seeing it this way, you can think about smoking as much as you want, but without stressing you.

7. "Come on, just one cigarette ..." it doesn't work!

"Come on, just a hit ..." or "I'm going to smoke, but just in the evening."

This is THE thought that plunges many former smokers back!

You too will probably think that you can smoke a cigarette once in a while.

For example, one or two jobs in the evening, or a "little" cigarette to overcome a difficult moment ...

But don't kid yourself. A hit will bring a second, then a third, and so on ...

And in no time, you'll be smoking again, without even noticing it.

So don't forget: there is no such thing as a single cigarette.

8. Beware of patches and other nicotine substitutes

Avoid nicotine substitutes such as nicotine patches, chewing gum, or electronic cigarettes.

Even though these substitutes do replace cigarettes, they give the illusion that you are making a sacrifice.

But in reality, these substitutes maintain your nicotine addiction.

And as a result, quitting smoking becomes again more hard !

In essence, it is like advising a drug addict who smoke drugs to start inject it in place !

9. Throw away all your cigarettes because you are no longer a smoker!

Don't keep spare cigarettes! Why ?

Because keeping cigarettes "in an emergency" means that you are in doubt.

Those who don't smoke don't need cigarettes. And the moment you crushed your last butt, you become a non-smoking person.

This is just one of the many benefits of your newfound freedom.

Finished this state of servitude to tobacco! You can forget about that horrible worry of always carrying cigarettes and a lighter with you.

So don't carry cigarettes with you, or anywhere else. Throw them all out. And also get rid of all your lighters and ashtrays :-)

10. Enjoy your newfound freedom and be careful not to fall back into the trap.

In no time your life will be back to normal, as a non-smoker :-)

And now that you live without cigarettes, enjoy your freedom!

But be careful, because our minds are devious! He will always try to rationalize your urge to smoke, and find crazy reasons to resume smoking.

So never let your guard down! Do not forget : there is no such thing as a single cigarette.

If your mind is trying to play a trick on you, are you saying to yourself that the question is not, "What if I smoke myself a cigarette, just one?"

The true question is: "Do I want to smoke again, put thousands of cigarettes in my mouth, light them and shoot them, several times a day, every day? the year, without ever being able to stop? "

The answer, of course, is "no".

During these moments of doubt, congratulate yourself on your choice, on your new life.

Think about the freedom to be a non-smoker, and to be able to enjoy the rest of your life without cigarettes!

To help you read Allen Carr's book

All of these tips are taken from Allen Carr's bestseller, The easy way to stop smoking.

I strongly advise you to read this guide, considered to be THE best method to quit smoking.

What if you fall for it?

Don't worry, it happens to everyone :-)

If you start to smoke again, don't consider it a failure.

The important thing is to stay motivated to try again!

Quitting smoking is never easy, but people really motivated to quit for good are those who make several relentless attempts.

Rather see your "failure" as a step in your learning. Try to figure out what made you smoke again.

What obstacles were you unable to overcome? What conditions have not been conducive to your success?

Above all, don't be too hard on yourself if you crack once. Keep hanging on and letting go of that urge. It's really worth it !
