Day 59: June 11, 2007, and Today's TIP

I survived Sunday - no problem. The weather was gorgeous this past weekend so I did a lot of biking.

This morning was a different story. My mind decided to entertain me with images of what it would be like if I was to light up a cigarette. Fortunately, I know that cigarettes are nothing more than a bad habit. I don't need them.

I didn't struggle with these thoughts for long - but they did have to be dealt with on a conscious level. my Nicotine QUENCH Plan was the perfect exit strategy.

Today's TIP

AVOID smoking areas and people who are smoking. Eventually a time will arrive when you have no choice but to meet with people under these circumstances. However, it is important to understand the difference between choosing to put yourself in harms way (temptation) and NOT having the choice. It's the conscience again - you want to make sure you are THINKING your way through your actions - BEFORE you take action.
