    About this ebook

    Who better than an ex-smoker can help you quit smoking! The Quit Plan is based on my first hand experience and is a practical guide from someone who knows how it feels. It can also be called The Cheat Plan as the tips and tricks I learnt and used will help you cheat around your addiction and beat it. 

    It is a short straight to the point book, made for today's busy lifestyle. No fluffy text.

    The Quit Plan is a four step process.The Quit Plan is a journey that can be as long as you wish. Which means that you will not quit smoking on day 1, but slowly after a process and as part of your plan.

    It has worked for me and my friends and it can work for you. The Quit Plan makes quitting smoking easy.
