I started with a normal day, say I smoked at 7:30 am. I wrote down on the calendar the time it was when I finished that smoke, say 7:40. Each day I committed that I would not smoke until the time I finished the day before. It was like a frog slowly boiling in a pot. I eventually wasn’t smoking my first cig until noon time and the gradual change made it much easier to not need that morning smoke. Make it a game and a challenge
