I have learned that with everything you need to be prepared, as you said, have your head in the right place, have plans in place for when bad things happen and the stress level rises high. I noticed (Seeing that I have quit many times) that the thinking of "I have quit before I can do it again" is wrong. I have to keep the quit, now and forever. I need to get over it and get on with it. I have to admit I am addicted and act accordingly. I have to realize that I can never have another puff. NOPE.

I learned this time around that I can enjoy the process. That I do NOT have to be miserable and cranky and winey.... It is easier for me to look at quiting smoking with the knowledge that I CHOOSE to be smoke free...it doesn't choose me!

Cigarettes Not Smoked

I've learned that this is totally in MY control. It's my decision to smoke or to not smoke and I choose to be smoke-free. Some days are harder than others. Best wishes.

My first and only attempt to quit smoking, over two years ago, taught me a lot about this addiction and what it takes to win my life back. For instance, I learned that quitting was a process that would take a long time. I discovered that I needed to be mentally and emotionally ready to undergo that process. I'm not going to just throw my smoking identity out the window. It will change, little by little... but it's not something that will happen in a month. I believe that I'm able to keep this quit long-term. For me, there's really no alternatitive that I'm prepared to live with. The smoking is done. Now it's just a matter of becoming comfortable with what I am; a non-smoker. I could share my entire list of "what I've learned from a previous attempt to quit", but I'd like to hear from all of you, too. What did you learn about what it takes, or about yourself that will now make you successful in your new life as a non-smoker?
