Give yourself an absolute quit date at least two weeks out to mentally prepare. Reduce your smoking slowly in those two weeks and when you hit that date quit. Find hobbies to keep your mind occupied. Chew gum or carry a pen to chew on for the period after quiting. Mentally prepare yourself for the struggle in the first 48 hours, after that its mostly mental addiction. 7 days and your looking good. 30 days and your mostly in the clear. Never forgett the struggle you had to get clean. My past mistakes are always underestimating the power of nicotine and thinking that just one at a bar wont kill me, It triggers your brains addiction pathways and your hooked again quick!

Good luck you will need it! Oh and finally if you fail, dont give up get back at it!
