where did I find the time to smoke?

[Jonny5]

after quite a short amount of time you wonder how you used to manage to fit smoking into your busy lives.

 

The perceived initial void soon disappears.

 

I would not be able to fit 40 5 minute smoke breaks into my busy life without missing out on life....

 

...and that is something we don't learn until we have quit, smokers miss out on the life that they are living as well as the life that they are killing.

I remember sneaking outside to smoke whenever I was out with family or friends. Those 10 minutes could have been spent with them instead, but I "needed" my fix. I didn't realize how much I must have missed out on as a smoker. Ugh, silly me.

 

Great post btw. :)

In just my short amount of time in my quit, I cannot fathom where I made the time. I telecommute from home. I NEVER, not once, have smoked inside my house. My smoking spot is out in the garage. I would have to get up from my office, walk a hundred feet, putting on my jacket if required, and go out to the garage to get my fix. That happened every 15 to 20 minutes. I'm already noticing the time!

its all been a total waste of time - full stop!

 

Time is something we cannot get back but it is something we can make the most of now
