Tips for The Day to Stop

• Throw away you cigarettes and ashtrays and lighters.

• Clean your clothes to rid them of cigarette smell.

• Stay away from smokers until your resolve gets stronger. (This is a temporary measure only).

• Clean your car inside and out. Keep a different air freshener in your car. Baking soda will absorb many odors from the car if left overnight and then vacuum up.

• Go to bed early.

• Keep yourself busy.

• Make a list of projects that you never had the time for. Save this for when you really need to keep your mind off cigarettes.

• Save the money that is budgeted for cigarettes in a jar and use this money for your rewards.

• Take quitting hour-by-hour, day-to-day. Thinking that you are never ever going to smoke again can be overwhelming to some.

• Take a walk or a mental break as often as possible.

• Refocus your thoughts often.

• Refuse to allow anything to change your mind.

• Smoking is no longer an option.
