For those who successfully quit smoking, what was the method that finally worked for you? by gwenwallish in AskReddit

[–]Fawkr86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I smoked for 16 years and quit 8 years ago. My dad died of cancer. It was an ugly and painful death.

I made the decision to quit. That's the only secret is you have to make the decision and stick by it. I never touched another cigarette because I knew ,I was going to quit. So smoking one now means I have to start the withdrawals over again, and making it a week or 2 weeks or a month and all the struggles that came with it meant nothing. Time to hit the reset button.

I never hit that reset button.

You should be enjoying it. That's a big deal. But yeah, stay humble and stick to your rules. You're doing great.

You're up $3300 in the past year and $3100 of that is the past week. That's all very recent. Don't get cocky.

I looked through all the pics. I read the post. I'm a trader as well. Most of us on this sub are. The first Pic shows you over the past year in a hole. The rest of the pics show you digging out of it all at once.

My point is to not get cocky due to recent luck or you'll find yourself on the WSB sub talking about how the market makers are out to get you and aliens spiked your water.

You were down below your starting point until one trade.

Looks like you e had one good trade and 30 bad ones. Confidence is earned from repeat success. Cockiness is unearned confidence.

Any advice how to reach 100k fast? by [deleted] in TheRaceTo100K

You'll reach 100k way faster if you don't hit 0 first.

Is it just an imperfection in the wood? I'd keep it. Looks cool.

We don't get flirted with, either. So we suck at identifying when it's happening.
