"Replace bad habits with good habits." ~ Charles Fuchs.
HEY STACKERS!
The past few weeks, I decided that I wanted to do something to change one of my "bad" habits that I had for many years... to quit smoking. π
It's one of my biggest "Vices" that I have in my life right now. π³
So what they hell is a Vice? It's a practice, behavior, or habit generally considered immoral, sinful, criminal, rude, taboo, depraved, or degrading in the associated society.
In other words, it's a "bad habit" or "addiction". ππΌ
Before you start judging anyone, we all as individuals have certain vices that we don't like and do everyday.Β
It can be anything, whether it's eating to much food, watching tv, gambling, sex, drugs, alcohol, internet (social media), shopping (consumerism), video games etc... etc...
The funny thing is that when growing up, I hated people who smoked and use to complain about it to my friends who did to "put it out".Β
However, in my mid 20's... I started to hangout with lots entrepreneurs who did smoke and it was considered a "social thing" to talk business and you know what happened next. I eventually picked up the habit lol
Well today, I'm going to stop smoking (somewhat). I don't believe in the idea of stopping "cold turkey" because that stuff tends to lead people right back and I'm going to do it gradually.Β
So instead of smoking my typical "Organic American Spirit Cigarettes" that I smoked for years, I'm going to replace it with Juul. It's just a vaporizer that doesn't have smoke and replaces it with vapor.Β
Here are some pics:
Don't get me wrong, replacing a bad habit with a lesser bad habit won't solve the problem but it's a better alternative to help me stop completely months down the road.Β
I may even toss this Juul out in a few days as I've been researching "CBD oil vaporizers" and it has 100% health benefits with no side effect. Stay tuned for my review on it next week.
So there you have it, just putting it out there. Now it's my responsibility to follow through on this... please don't comment "good luck" or anything like that.Β
I rather people say "About fucking time, "smoking"... that shit is nasty". π€£
Until Next Time, Keep on STACKIN! π
P.S. For those who's interested in following my "Content" and "Daily" Posts... you can just follow me @stackin to get my updates.
It is a step forward to better yourself.
Glad you want us to push you about it.

But it is your responsibility to quit once and for all.
I think steemians can help you all together
the same way you help us everyday.
this is your reminder going forward.

Today is day 24 for me with no smokes. The vape makes a lot easier for sure. I had been smoking for about 23 years and tried to quit numerous times. But I think this time it is going to take.
You can do it!!!

Oi @stackin For me cold turkey was the best option. I quit like that 9 years ago :) It's hard to believe some vaporizer stuff has 'health benefits' or whatever you are talking hahaha.
Just show some balls and go cold Turkey! :-) It's all in your head anyways!! Ai! Challenge?? :-) :-* Mwah!

You can replace cigarettes with something else like candy or chocolate. It worked for many people. They stopped smoking and started eating more.
But I am really curious to see your updates in the next weeks and what is the result of your big challenge :)

Is juul same as e-cigarettes or vape? Have you tried using vape instead? Withdrawal from a smoking not easy you should atleast replace it with candy or something. But of course this is for your own good @stackin! πβ€

As much as I understand the hanging out to get deals, a person's health is more important. I've lost out of much intel @ work from not hanging out the smoking shelter but I'm feeling good. Also, more $ for investments & crypto.
