Day 10 - the rest of my life

Recommended Posts

My son's driving scares me to death.

It isn't just that he drives too fast; it's that he doesn't understand that he cannot predict what is up ahead on the road.  

He just doesn't have the experience yet to know about all the hazards that can get in the way and why a margin for safety is a really good idea.

Whenever we get a report of snow or worse, sleet, I make sure to remind him to drive carefully.  Slow down and keep plenty of room between him and the car in from on him.

I tell him "You have the rest of your life to get where you're going".

 

That was kind of a long explanation of today's mantra.

I am reminding myself that there are hazards up ahead.  I need to slow down and we cautious with my quit.

I am quitting for the rest of my life.  And that's today's mantra.  Quitting for the rest of my life.

Never take your quit for granted. In fact always walk closely, nothing is permanent in this life. I´ve been through so many temptations in these 10 months, dont get too optimistic about your 10 days. Just dont smoke for today and do the same tommorow. But i believe this is your sticky quit. Keep on rocking lad.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
