Tip:
CELEBRATE YOUR SUCCESS!
Congratulations!
You've done it. You've beaten the smokeless habit. You're improving
your health and the health of the people around you. The rewards that
come with quitting will make you a healthier and happier person. Celebrate
with the people on your "support team". Offer your support
to friends and teammates who are trying to quit.
Reward Yourself:
Rewarding yourself helps to reinforce your decision to beat the smokeless
habit. Give yourself a reward for every milestone in your new life free
from tobacco. Rewards don't have to cost much to be special, they can
even be free! Rewards can be anything you like or care about. People
who reward themselves for quitting are more likely to succeed in quitting.
Here are some examples:
- Buy some music,
a new CD, tape, or magazine.
- Go to the salon
for a new hairstyle or a new look.
- Buy new shoes for
running/walking or buy exercise equipment.
- Call an old friend
or family member.
- Get tickets for
a great concert or sporting event.
- Spend extra time
on your favorite hobby.
- Go to the movies
or rent an old favorite.
- Go out to a great
restaurant and eat a special meal or have a treat.
