·         Speak with friends, family, and colleagues and ask for support. Tell them about your plan to quit, so it feels more real to you.
·         Start making the changes to quitting smoke - stop smoking in the house and in the car. Make your house and car smoke-free, so no one is allowed to smoke inside.
·         Don’t smoke, not even a little.
·         Toss out your cigarettes, other tobacco, and ashtrays.
·         Avoid people and situations where you will be tempted to smoke. If you usually smoke in a certain chair, don’t sit in that chair. If you usually smoke at a nightclub, avoid that nightclub for a while. Change your usual routine, so your new routine doesn’t include smoking.
·         Go for a walk instead of a smoke.
·         Get help from support groups, counselors and your local quit line
·         Take it one day at a time. Remind yourself that once the withdrawal is over, you’ll feel better than you have in years. You deserve to feel better…. You’re almost there!
·         Celebrate your success and give yourself credit! Tell people how long you’ve been quit. It's a major achievement and you should be proud.

·         Be positive. Believe in yourself and your plan.
