        For so many people it's difficult to master their own desires of their body. One of the most important factors in quitting any bad habit, is to truly make the decision to quit for your own good.

        Once you really decide to quit it's much easier. Personally I have quit a many times and I prayed for the strength. That has been to me a great help, not to mention I had plenty of practice quitting several times before.

        I really think you really have to mean it when you choose to quit.

          Colleen if your serious about quitting smocking it like you tell it were to go! and not the other way round,after you stop making excuse oh I've try before,and couldn't do it,"Now stop and do it,[No if and but]"stay away place that are tempting you,and coffee,is not helping either,so do your part and God will do the rest,that only if you summit yourself and ask for His help.

            I've never tried to quit before. I enjoy smoking. I'm respectful and do not smoke around other people or my pets. I do not litter and toss my butts around. I do not have smoking related health issues. Since I respect your right to not smoke and not be around my smoke then please respect my right to smoke since I enjoy it. There's no power war going on here when it's an absolute choice I make. I like it.

              This question was direct to people who are trying to quit smoking.
              I'm referring if you can't control a little stick the size of your pinky.How will you be able to control anything bigger?
              Power is no good to anyone if you can't control it,specially as small as your little finger.Lesson learn by practice what you preach.

                It's the nicotine that gets into your blood stream that has the power, not the little stick between your fingers. The power is what it does to your system, not your fingers. This does not inhibit you from having power over other things. I smoke but I do not allow junk food to take over my nutritional meals.

                if you dont have control of something you really dont have it.like a 10 million trust fund when you turn 30 and you are twenty now. you could starve in the mean time
