What Having 'Just One' Can Lead To.
Once I had a two week quit going which wasn't much, but I felt great about it and didn't really miss cigarettes, so I got overconfident and decided that me and my partner both could have a "treat" on a weekend trip. Then I started smoking only on weekends, or only when drinking (which of course happened more frequently) for some time and was back to being a full blown 1-2 packs a day smoker. Such overconfidence, feeling too safe is dangerous. But the truth is - we don't want just a test, we just subconsciously find a way we can justify smoking to ourselves. I had the junkie saying those things in my head yesterday, when we went out to the movies and drinks after with some aquintances. I just kept thinking, "just one". Thankfully, I didn't, I know I would have regreted it, but it's always like that. In the morning I wrote a post about me realising all those lies we tell ourselves are such bs. I felt too comfortable with my quit. I have already braved most out the outside world and situations as a non smoker, I thought a movie and a bar wouldn't be a big deal, and I was wrong. And unprepared. And any other time I probably would have made the mistake to have just one.

Benefits of quitting smoking
No persistent cough, wheezing, better health in general, more energy, stamina, lung capacity so you can be more physically active, no stale cigarette smell everywhere, no ciggie burns on clothes, furniture, car seats etc, No constant fear that "it's too late " and that you already have gotten a horrible smoking related disease, no driving to the gas station in the middle of the night, being able to enjoy all kinds of activities without disruption, being less anxious, stressed and angry, more peaceful, an improved life in every way because once you quit you start caring about your health more, and yourself.

Anyone ever use affirmations?
Also - those thoughts, words depending on which ones have their own positive or negative vibrations/energy, and the negative attracts more of the negative, positive attracts positive, the law of attraction :)

Rewarding Myself for Quitting Smoking
I haven't exactly been rewarding myself with the thought that those things are my reward for not smoking, but I'm becoming increasingly nicer to myself, lol. I try out new healthy meals, shop for all kinds of things that kind of seemed almost pointless as a smoker - like organic hand lotions etc. Clothes, books, things for home. Oh and hobbies, since now I don't have the giant obstacle- smoking, standing in my way anymore. One could say I'm rediscovering life :D And turning into a shopping addict, lol. My Amazon wishlist is getting bigger and bigger and I don't dare to go on sites like Etsy and modcloth anymore :D
