Positive thinking is a powerful tool in staying off cigarettes.
Tell yourself that you "have what it takes." Believe that you are going to suceed. This will make quitting easier.
Other positive thoughts are:
- "I know I can do it."
- "I can handle smoking situations. - no problem."
- "If I got though today, I can get through any situation without cigarettes."
- "Each week things will be easier."
Thinking back over your reasons for quitting. Imagine yourself looking and feeling better as a nonsmoker."
