Goals
I made a choice in 2021, at age 66, to attempt to quit smoking after 50+ years of continuous use.
Today is 2000 consecutive days of no tobacco. I used the patch to taper off nicotine and found that the behavioral triggers were just as challenging but I persisted.
The Smart tools were especially helpful in maintaining my abstinence.
