Quitting Smoking with The Smoke Stop
 

The 10 Most Frequently Asked Questions!

Does your program require me to quit smoking immediately?

No. It will coach you every single chapter so that you learn everything you need to know before you quit. The idea is to make sure you stay quit this time, and to do that, you must reach the point where you make the decision to quit.

Does Your Method Work?

Yes, it does. It's how I taught myself to quit smoking. It's been used with exceptional success to coach thousands of smokers who thought they'd never get out of cigarette prison either. But they did!

What about the fear factor? Why do I fear quitting so much?

I have found this and weight gain to be the chief concerns among smokers wishing to quit. When you understand why you're afraid to quit smoking you won't be afraid anymore. You'll handle the withdrawal period with authority and without feeling like you're going to be "missing something."

Does your approach allow me to use pills, patches, gum, nicotine-free or low-tar cigarettes, etc?

Only if you insist. After all, isn't using a substitute drug really just exchanging one addiction for another? And anyway, physical addiction is the least part of the problem. Pills, patches, gums, etc., fail to address the real seat of addiction, the emotional and physiological layers. This is where the lion's share of addiction resides.

Is it true that your method is equally effective in treating with spit tobacco, pipe smoking, cigars and all tobacco products?

Yes. What's more we even get reports from individuals who state they have successfully applied our program with success to numerous problems in their lives -- not just smoking addiction.

Will I turn into a Tasmanian Devil while I'm quitting?

Definitely not. The agony and edginess associated with most quit smoking programs merely points out the shortcoming of their approach. Quitting is no cake walk, but you don't have to go nuts either. You will not have the tug-of-war that erupts between wanting to quit and wanting to smoke.

How long before I will experience results?

Immediately, if you're like most folks. You will experience a nearly euphoric reaction soon after you begin reading. However, it's not how quickly you set a quit smoking date that counts. It's how WELL you understand addiction before you set your quit date so that when you do quit, you stay quit.

Are there any subliminal messages in your book?

No. We show you the most important part of quitting ... how to quit smoking on your own ... not through somebody of something else.

What if I'm already using pills, patches, gums or some other quit-smoking drug?

You can use my method in conjunction with any other program, but the point is that you will give up drug substitutes eventually. Why not break clean from the start?

What makes people start smoking again, even months after they quit smoking?

If you do not have an exquisite understanding of the many ways addiction works, you can (and probably will) remain a prime candidate for re-addiction the rest of your life. My book shows you how to instantly deny any urge to make you light up ever again.

If I feel the need for additional support can I write you?

Yes. A majority of our visitors do. We even offer a separate program of personal counseling (one on one) if you are interested.

The 10 Most Popular Reasons For Not Quitting

I can't afford your book just now

If you're an average smoker, you spend $4.00 a day on your cigarette habit. That's $120 a month, which is 4 times more than the cost of my book. You'll need to another $120 for cigarettes the month after that and another $120 the month after that and so on and so on -- about $1500 a year.

Additionally, every sore throat that needs a doctor's attention, every prescription and every ruined article of clothing of furniture is part of the cost of smoking, not to mention that smokers pay a higher insurance premium too.

The up-front monies these items exact are the least of a smoker's expenses. A happy, healthy life cannot be measured in dollars. Think of it this way. You can re-open and re-use my book indefinitely, for the rest of your life even.

The question is not if you can afford my book but how much longer you can afford to keep smoking.

I've gone through a dozen programs and none of them worked. What makes my chances with your system any better?

You wouldn't have read this far if you didn't sense the legitimacy of what you've read to now. If you will let me, I can take the hope in your heart and turn it into victory, but you'll have to extend your faith in The Smoke Stops Here!.

Thousands of smokers are beginning to win the war against cancer, emphysema, heart diseases and other smoking-related illnesses. In fact, 3 million smokers in the U.S. alone are quitting each year. There's no reason your name shouldn't be on that list!

The truth is that I'm ashamed of having to ask for help. I had wanted to quit smoking on my own.

There is nothing wrong with wanting the acclaim that comes with quitting on your own. However, you didn't drive a car the first time you got behind the wheel, you didn't change a pair of diapers right the first time and you probably fell off your bicycle at least a dozen times before you learned how to stay upright.

You CAN quit smoking by yourself. But the tug-of-war between wanting to quit and wanting to smoke can hang on for years, unless you learn how to quit, stay quit and be totally comfortable with that decision. Learning about addiction is not an overnight course. In some quarters, nicotine addiction is now considered to be 10 times more powerful than even heroin addiction.

Meanwhile, you wouldn't hesitate to ask for help with your vision (requiring an optometrist), your car (requiring a mechanic) or your kids' poor grades (requiring the school counselor). So why shouldn't you get help with the world's worst addiction?

Now is not a good time to quit.

Neither was yesterday, neither is today and neither will tomorrow be. No time is a good time to quit smoking. So why bother? Here's why: You are healthy now and you can still say, "Now is not a good time to quit," but when you're bedridden with cancer or emphysema or heart disease, do you think these diseases will be listening when you say "Now is not a good time to die"? There is only one time to quit smoking. NOW.

Meanwhile, smokers continue putting off quitting until Monday, and when it gets here the date changes to New Year's and when New Year's gets here we move the target date again until -- next year. Suddenly, it's 10 years later and we're still smoking. Tragically for many of us, it takes a black spot on our lung or worse before we are finally ready to get serious about quitting. I want to say something about those of you who may already be facing a situation with your health.

Even if you already have a smoking-related illness or problem, you are infinitely better off quitting because your chances of contracting secondary major illnesses are greatly diminished by quitting now. Quitting, even after your health has been compromised, often results in complete restoration of your health, and even if it doesn't it guarantees your remaining years will be happier or healthier and probably both!

I can't say it enough times. You don't have to climb the walls as a result of your decision to quit smoking. In fact, I will show you how to celebrate your escape -- before, during and after -- reading The Smoke Stops Here!.

How can I know if I'm ready to quit?

Most of us are ready to quit when there is little joy left in smoking or have been diagnosed with a smoking-related problem that threatens our health. Why wait? You wouldn't stand in the road until a car hit you before trying to move out of its way.

Many of my family and friends smoke, and that keeps me from being able to quit.

There seem to be those things in life that each of us can resist doing even while others cannot. For instance, perhaps some of your friends can't resist a second or third helping of food but you can't. Or perhaps though some of them may not be able to resist "one more for the road," you can.

What is this something that allows you to resist a temptation when others cannot -- or to resist some temptations but not others?

The answer is, you easily resist a temptation once you've learned how it works. You learn to spot it sneaking up on you long before it ever arrives and you actually deflect it long before it gets there.

We only think that giving up smoking will leave us with a "mad with desire" for it. The fact is, the real thrill of kicking any addiction is being able to say "No!" to it with authority ... then moving on with the rest of your day without giving it another thought. Will you let me show you how to do this? I absolutely can!

"I'm still going strong!!! My lungs don't hurt, my breath and mouth don't taste like an ashtray and I'm not waking up coughing 3 or 4 times in the middle of the night!

It is truly amazing how fast my body is recovering, and if it could talk, how much it would thank me for not torturing and killing it anymore. Of course, your daily emails inspire me very much."
