    About this ebook

    Steven smoked for 45 years while trying many times to quit. One thing he did this time, that was never done before was to be committed to quitting while finding the methods to do so permanently. Once he absorbed the necessary Education, did the Meditation, repeated the Affirmations and adapted the “contract-with-yourself” concept, it really made it possible for him to quit smoking.
    Educating yourself about the tobacco industry, the reason you started smoking, the complex additives added to your cigarette will help you meet the challenge in quitting.
    Many religious people rely on meditation to elevate their consciousness. To follow a system of creating new thought patters in their mind to change and improve their relationships. The author took this time proven method of self-hypnotic, subconscious suggestion and applied it to smoking cessation.
    Positive thinking and affirmation is another success oriented method self- improvement gurus apply to construction of new habits in place of old ones. Again, he used this technique in building a list of affirmations to be repeated throughout his day. This way his old smoking habits were replaced with healthy ones.
    The method of signing a Contract is used in dietary control, religious sects, success and motivational studies, marriage counseling and other human relation efforts to commit to a goal of improvement. To focus on the “what” you want to change or improve in your life. In a relationship for example, a person can write down a contract with the other person and promise to fulfill certain obligations with regards to that relationship. What this does is commit you to your goals. Donald Trump says: “When you commit to something in writing all of a sudden it becomes real”. Steven took this “Contract” idea and applied it to this method of stopping the madness.

    * The Education:
    -Evolution of a smoker.
    -Tobacco plant facts and information.
    -Articles and information on tobacco related subjects.

      FORWARD

      In a Nutshell

      You bought this book for less than the cost of a pack of cigarettes. And hopefully your last pack. I want to tell you how I quit smoking after years of failed attempts. With good old-fashioned education, I understood that I could quit smoking, and that there were techniques out there to literally help me think my way out of this terrible habit!

      This book is a compilation of data I acquired while studying the habits and addiction of smoking; the tobacco manufacturing process; self-improvement sites and techniques and related topics during those first several weeks of my journey for the answers to this problem. I came to the conclusion that if I could retrain my mind, I could stop smoking.

      Quit Smoking Using Education, Meditation and Affirmation was born. So, I absorbed the education, signed the contract, meditated on what I wanted to achieve and repeated the affirmations which made it possible for me to finally quit smoking…to stop the tobacco/nicotine craving once-and-for-all.

      My suggestion to you is do exactly what I did. Read all the information you can, write down your daily efforts and challenges, list the triggers that temp you, sign the contract, do the meditations, set a date and you will be able to stop smoking. I puffed on cigarettes for 45 years while trying many, many, many times to stop. I used these time-tested philosophies to change my bad habits. Through
