A friend and I were just talking about Alan Carr's Easy Way to Quit Smoking. When I read the book, I started sticking reminders to my bathroom mirror so that every morning, the first thing I would see was, "Yippee, I'm a non smoker" or one of my other affirmations.

My favourite part of the book is that it convinces you to think about smoking. When I failed to quit, I'd always do the "don't think about smoking" dance. Needless to say, that always failed. Since the book, I've tried to focus more on my flaws. It hasn't worked in all ways, though I'm still trying.
