healthier you today

‘Try’ is a very weak word. Just ask any coach or personal trainer. They’ll both tell you that you won’t get very far by just trying. You have to commit. Without a totally committed level of thinking, it becomes very difficult to be successful. The same goes for quitting smoking.

Whether it is using the ‘try’ word when convincing yourself to quit or when talking to your friends and family, I have to warn you, don’t do it. You are doing yourself a disservice and potentially setting yourself up for failure.

Need an example? How about this. My wife has a fear of roller coasters and I don’t know where it came from. She’s not afraid of heights and not really afraid of speed, so why this is, I still haven’t figured it out. And the funny thing is she can’t tell me why either.

And on any occasion when I or my son have been able to coerce her into standing in the line with us with the utmost belief that this time she is going, she always says ‘I’ll try.’ But wouldn’t you know it, by the time we reach the head of the line she has extricated herself to a position of safety, opting instead to wait for us at the end.

So how does she get out of it and still feel good about herself? Because she only said she would ‘try’ and that doesn’t really count. The same goes when you are the path to becoming a non-smoker. By only trying, you are leaving yourself an easy exit down the road. And this isn’t something you want to do.

Talk to any smoker who has gone through this process, some of them more than once, and you will find that when they set out to achieve their goal of quitting they said ‘I’ll try’ and when they failed, they state ‘Oh well, I tried.’

So let’s try a different approach. Develop a policy such as this for your quit smoking efforts. ‘I will quit no matter what. I believe I have the fortitude to achieve my goal. Nothing will stop me from reaching it.’ Make a powerful statement like that to yourself and believe it and your success is guaranteed.

Write your commitment down – everywhere. Carry it in your purse or wallet; your coat pocket; in your car; your bathroom or anywhere else you will see it to remind yourself the reasons why you want to quit smoking. Refer to these commitments often – it will make your efforts that much more solid.
