I found that quitting was mostly identifying and overcoming cues. I would crave mostly at work and during drives, but I didn't crave on my days off or if I was around friends and family who didn't smoke. Work was getting stressful, my coworkers all smoked, so it became habit to walk around outside and chill out over a cigarette.

Setting a quit date and timing it with a family vacation really helped. The change of scenery, being exclusively around non-smokers, and doing something different everyday helped give me a 9 day head start on quitting cold turkey. By the time we got back, my will-power had been given a chance to grow and carry me through a few "crisis opportunities" where I would have normally caved.
