Today is the 70th day since I ceased to smoke cigarette. I cannot say the process was easy, however, determination to quit smoking is the biggest factor. Health and financial concerns played a big role also.

2. When shopping, never go to the section where cigarettes are sold
3. Temporarily avoid people who smoke
4. Tell everyone that you already stopped smoking including your pets

So, here’s the recap of my method to quit smoking:

1. Don’t buy cigarette ever;
2. Drink ample amount green tea everyday.
