Learning from Your Past
As Mark Twain once said, “Quitting smoking is easy…I’ve done it a thousand times.”
Those of you who have quit and gone back to using tobacco know that it feel can like a failure. You may be tempted to quit quitting because nothing seems to work.
But not many people stay quit after just one try. Every time you quit you find out more about what works and what doesn’t, and it brings you closer to finding a way to make it work. What we have learned from people, is that if they are truly determined to quit, they will find a way to do it.
The worksheet below is designed to help you understand and learn from your past quitting experiences. This exercise may help you create a better strategy if you decide to quit again.
