Motivation Theory:
All of us are motivated to act by
1: Fear - "I don't want to get cancer"
2: Reward - "I will save money or get the girl"
3: Image - "I'm tired of people being disgusted with my dipping"
4: Duty - "I don't want my kids to start"
All are great motivations but what changed in me and my theory is 80% of us will never graduate to a higher motivation.
20% quit for good and don't touch nicotine ever again when they are motivated to quit by Value
I am quit today because I Value my freedom, I value my record, I value my relationships, I value my word, I value handling my shit without saying I need to hump a can to relieve stress, I need a can to enjoy golfing, watching a game. I value removing the poison so I can see nicotine for what it is.
Welcome: Trust all of us and follow the plan. Don't question or alter the plan, just do it with exactness. Your motivation can get to value but for now, just follow the plan.
Nicotine is a killer, Nicotine is lie, Nicotine blinds you and limits who you are and what you can accomplish. Anyone who follows the vets and this plan...will not fail. Its when you think you don't need to follow or alter the plan is when nicotine will seduce you back.
Post roll every day you wake, Keep your promise for the day. Worry about today and don't think about being quit tomorrow or forever. Just get through today. Then love your victory as go to bed. If you wake and tomorrow becomes today...repeat.
