I know it hasn't always been a Sweet Ride,
But I think it's been the ride you needed to become such a strong force in your quit and others.

I have to make it through today to get to tomorrow.

Worry won't change tomorrow.
Regret won't change yesterday.
Change today so you won't have worry or regret.

Focus on what you can effect directly, your actions. Nothing I do or say can effect you unless you grant me the power over you.
I Quit with you today pards.
Back here Monday.

Quitting is not about removing something in your life. It is about redefining your life.

For my 1st full year in car sales (2016): 142 cars sold and I was within 1800 of what I made my last year in the classroom.

I am happy and can say that the stress in my life is 80% of what it used to be. I can now sort through the stressors and deal with them as they come. I would say that is true a good 80% of the time. There are still things that get me going but I am able to self adjust and monitor, effectively.

Reading back through everything I have posted and shared over the 2+ yrs here on KTC and I have defiantly refined my life for the better, one day at a time. I know that I am not the same person I was when I started. I also know that I have yet to even see the finial product of this journey. That has me excited and nervous. I need to remind myself that looking ahead is great, but I can only get there when I focus on today.

Goals for 2017
- Get back down below 200 lbs (haven't been there since 2010)
- Spend at least 2 hours a week doing something for me
- Spend 10 hrs a week unplugged and with the family
- Master the sales phone call
There are no circumstances in which using nicotine will improve the outcome.

My journey. The best part it is not over yet.

Now I am curious.....
"A. Don't shit on Mr. C"

Are you The Pied Piper of Quit? Does your support really matter all that much?
You think a whooole lot of yourself to assume the above statement is something that has weight.

Sorry... not trying to be an ass, bro but... just be a quitter.

Like we all are.

Assigning importance to yourself is silly.
Yeah, I know. It was an arrogant moment and thought. Thats why I posted it here not in the threads. All good thats life.

SD was right in the vain of thinking.
Ones cockiness can also become ones setback
I worry about my quit first on foremost. Anyone I can help is great, anyone who doesn't listen to me is off my radar in a matter of seconds, because at the end of the day I am still a quitter.

I also subscribe to equality in quits...if a day 2 dude posts roll, his quit is equal my day XX quit, and so on. It's an unpopular way of thinking to some folks, but the ODAAT philosophy is what drives that.

We are all addicts, and only one bad decision to be active addicts, makes no difference who we emulate in our quit circles. In my quit circles I have some serious BAQ's backing me up, yet only I can control what I choose to do.
Vet rage! This place has it ALL!!!
I have a similar veiw....

For example day 3 quitter today, I am 923 days quit. The difference is 920 days.

The only difference is I figured it out 920 days sooner. We now need to keep our days quit the same distance apart.


As for my attitude... I have been all over the map lately. Dont really know whats going on but it is something i am working through.
My $.02...

You're all over every new group and newbie acting as a self appointed Quit cop/guru...

Just stop.

Giving back is great but you gots to find the balance.

After all... this is only the Internet.

Real life happens off the screen...

Find the balance.
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.
