DAY
9
FREEDOM
This
is going to be one of the most important decisions of your
life.
|
Not only is it going to change your financial
life........
....imagine how excited you would be if you found out that you
had just won over $50,000 in a grand raffle! Well, you have in a way!! |
But it will also be
the most important health decision you will ever
make.
The decision you make, in the
next few days will also, probably save you years of pain and
unnecessary suffering.
This decision is so important for you and your family.
It is also important for all the smokers
who have not yet had the courage to face their addiction.
There is, however one terrible,
terrible irony of smoking.......
People find it so hard to believe
that it is easy to give up.
And that is the central truth
about smoking: it is easy to give up.
KEY IDEA
People find
it so hard to accept that giving up smoking can be
EASY.
And yet, most of us believe the
opposite.
In this course we have,
hopefully opened your mind to a new possibility.
You have
begun to allow yourself to forget the myths and lies - and
to begin to believe that maybe.....just maybe....it is
possible to give up smoking and to give up for
good.
Yes, I know it is still hard
for you to believe - but that is because you have not yet
experienced it.
Soon, you are going to give up
smoking for good.
|
As this time approaches, you will begin to
experience a variety of emotions - from initial delight to
fear and panic.
Fine. |
There is nothing to worry
about.
You are not doing an examination here where everybody
is looking at you and where if you fail initially, you are
doomed forever.
You are starting on a process
where you are going to prove to yourself that giving up
smoking can be easy and even downright enjoyable.
Why not
take this adventurous, playful attitude ?
Relax and begin to play around
with all the new ideas you have gathered from this course.
Do not force yourself to believe any of them.
But start to
consider them as possibilities.
Open your mind
to the possibility that maybe, after all..........
'I could
genuinely give up smoking for good .....
Oh, wouldn't that
be marvelous ...........
But no, hold on, I tried before and
failed and found it terrible ......... Yes! ..............
but ....... wasn't that because I tried to give up through
WILLPOWER alone ? .......
Could this new approach, this
psychology of non-smoking really work ?
Maybe.......
Just maybe. I don't know.'
And maybe your thoughts will
continue as
follows :
"Do I really NEED
to smoke? Really NEED to.
Could I ever get through the day HAPPILY
without smoking?
Could I ever ENJOY my morning coffee
without a cigarette or after a meal .............
I have ALWAYS believed (like the world once believed the earth was
flat.) that it would be impossible.
Surely it is.
................... but wait a minute, I got by happily
before I ever became a smoker in the first place - didn't I
?
I was able to enjoy watching TV, talking to all my friends
on the phone, enjoy all my meals .....WITHOUT SMOKING!
Yes, I did and even
when people around me - my mother and father were smoking -
it never bothered me at all.
I wonder........ I wonder.
..................
And what about the
majority of people in the world!
They don't smoke and they
seem to get through all these occasions comfortably
.......... They seem to be ABLE to enjoy their coffee
and meals without the slightest NEED
or desire to smoke.
It
doesn't effect their enjoyment one iota......
............
My God, could it be true?
...........
Maybe even after all these years, I do not really
NEED
the cigarette ....... Sure I would like to have it....
........... but do I really NEED
it ?
Could I possibly enjoy myself without
it........?
I must admit ........ I never
really thought about it like this before .......
I just believed giving up
smoking was all about losing a nice pleasure ......
And
never actually considering the possibility I could be
just as HAPPY without it ........'
