Will You Quit Smoking Weed in 2010

Another year spent smoking weed?

Do you want to quit weed and get on with your life?

Then make it your sole purpose to do it in 2010. Meaning that if you could only achieve one thing for the whole year then let quitting weed that one thing. If you smoke $20 of weed a day and quit today, then this time next year you would have $7280! If you stop smoking cigarettes as well then you would save another $1500.

I promise you, when you quit smoking weed the other things you want become much easier to get, your head is clear and priorities seem to change. You will find that doing things like keeping your place tidy, talking to people and anything that used to seem like a chore will be 'for filling' and fun.

So are there any bad points?

Well yes, the actual quitting weed part of the program is what stumps a lot of people.

We all know what it's like to have no weed. There mere words 'no weed' sends fear to most reading this. But why should it? You are going to feel so much better when you quit, no more feeling lethargic or as I like to call it 'zombified.' Having more energy than you can remember will feel like you are young again, or for those of you who are still young, you will feel more energetic, healthier and happier than you have felt in years.

Does quitting weed really make that much difference?

Hell YEAH!

It's a slow decline, many weed smokers don't see it. But think about how active you were when you first started. How much wittier you were and how much better your memory was. It doesn't happen over night, but slowly over time weed affects every area of our lives. It affects us when talking to people, it affects our confidence along with our health.

Is smoking worth it?

When we consider all the benefits of quitting weed and compare them to the reasons to smoke, smoking weed doesn't make sense.

* The money it costs
* The energy it takes
* Bad memory
* Bad relationships with those around you
* Paranoia
* Anxiety
* Stress
* Depression
* Lack of emotions
* Getting nowhere in life

All that and we STILL smoke weed? I know the reason you smoke weed and I know how easily you can quit weed... If you want to?

Top Tips to Help You to Quit Smoking

1. Rate your craving on a scale of 1 to 10. 1 being the weakest and 10 being the strongest.

2. Whilst concentrating on the craving start to tap gently under your eye with two fingers ten times.

3. Still concentrating on your craving, tap on your collarbone ten times

4. Now tap under your eye ten times.

5. Now tap on the side of your hand (the karate chop point) ten times

6. Now start to tap on the back of your hand between the pinkie and third finger.

7. Still tapping this point, hum or whistle "Happy Birthday"

8. Still tapping this point count from 1 to 5.

9. Still tapping this point, hum or whistle "Happy Birthday" again.

10. Still tapping this point look down and to the right. Then look down and to the left.

11. Still tapping this point, roll your eyes around in a big circle as if looking around a giant clockface.

12. Still tapping this point, close your eyes, and then open your eyes.

Ok, now rate your craving from 1 to 10 again. You should find that your craving has been reduced. If you want to reduce it some more, try repeating the technique again

Quit Smoking For Good

If you've ever tried to quit smoking and failed you've probably wished that there was some way to quit smoking for good. I've spoken to people who have tried ten, even fifteen times sometimes to quit smoking but, in the end, have always gone back to the hazardous to our health, cancer causing sticks that come in pretty packages. It does not matter that these people knew that cigarettes were basically death or cancer in a gift wrapped box addressed to them, they knew that and that is why they were trying to quit at the time. What mattered was that their physical and mental addiction to the nicotine seemed to great to overcome. If you are like most Americans then you've probably got a rather high stress level from your job or school and, like the people I have spoken to in the past, reach for a smoke or two to help you get through those stressful days on the job or your late night study sessions. However, I'm sure that you too know that smoking is extremely hazardous for your health and lungs and that you need to quit, on top of that that it can be an extremely difficult process for some.

It doesn't have to be. The products that are out there are fine, and ninety nine percent of them work exactly as they are marketed to. The only reason why they get a bad rap sometimes is because people are unwilling to stick to the strict regimens that are needed to keep them on the path to quit smoking for good. People who quit successfully over time seem to develop a sort of willpower unique to smokers in that they can give up their physical addictions, such as the oral fixation, by replacing it with something else and, eventually, weaning themselves off of that thing as well. You can also curb the mental addiction rather easily by replacing it with something physical, such as exercise, that occupies your thoughts or takes your mind off of smoking so much. The hard part is that these things take time to get used to and, if you have not developed that special willpower then you will not succeed in your quest. So, not only do you need to follow the directions on the product to a tee, but you also need to develop unwavering willpower to successfully quit.
