Part 3: Making a Quit Plan

You Don’t Need a Great Plan

An “ok” plan today beats a “great” plan a few months from now.

 

Motivation and willpower can ebb and flow—if you have even an ounce of motivation today, it’s probably a good day to take action. You don’t need to wait until your motivation is very high or you feel like you have a perfect plan laid out.

 

Having some kind of plan, though, WILL help you succeed. Trying to quit without a plan can lead to frustration and relapse, as you find yourself unprepared for nicotine urges and trigger situations.

 

Use the tools in this book to build your personal toolkit and action plan. Try out strategies even before you’re ready to dive into quitting fully. You might cut out a few cigarettes or a dip or two, putting yourself on the road to quitting completely!

 

Start setting yourself up to be successful and confidence will follow!
