7 days, they say, was how long it took to create the world. Well, I think I followed in Gods footsteps (not in a religious way), but by taking a step back, thinking I had done it. Had a real tester of a day at work. I thought all of the challenges at work had been faced. Not the case. And yes, I lit up a fag. Am I proud? No. Did i get the "hit" I expected? No. Did it help me de-stress? No again. Have I given up giving up? Definitely no!. Its back to square one again, but I can take some positives (believe me you have to take positives, and that doesnt mean excuses). I know I can last 7 days. If I add 1 day to each time I give up it that would mean only 26 fags in a year (yep, do the sums). Some might say that thats being negative, and that I have resigned to smoking in 8 days time. As with an major task, though, I think the key is to make the challenges stretching, but achievable. Otherwise the task seems just too major, and you give up before you start (or in my case "stop")
So heres to trying again...
