Do you think you have it in you to smoke for the rest of your life? Because that is the only alternative. There is no middle ground. And isn't the thought of smoking for the rest of your life far more scary than the thought of quitting? Think about it. Think about where you want to be in 5 years...Repost: Scared to fail……. Again

Do you think you have it in you to smoke for the rest of your life? Because that is the only alternative. There is no middle ground. And isn't the thought of smoking for the rest of your life far more scary than the thought of quitting? Think about it. Think about where you want to be in 5 years... still smoking? ... or with a 5 year quit behind you? What you do TODAY will determine where you will be then.
You certainly have it in you to quit. We all do. You just have to keep in mind that the discomfort of quitting is TEMPORARY, and more importantly that it was not caused by quitting, but by all your years of smoking. Smoking did all of this to you, including filling you with this irrational need to smoke more. As you abstain from smoking and nicotine releases its grip on you, you will start to feel stronger and to see things more clearly. Quitting is nothing but good. All the bad stuff you experience is no more than the dying gasps of your addiction. Be glad that you have finally reached your quit again.
Congratulations on making such a good decision.
