From my very limited experience! please don't shout to the world your intention of quitting. I have learnt in the past few weeks to not put too much pressure on myself. I have learnt that I want to give up for ME and ME alone, NOT because other people want me to. My wife and my support yelled at me the other night because I smoked, my two daughters then explained to her that this was MY choice to quit. The pressure I felt was enoumous. I announced on Facebook my intentions, big, big mistake. My opinion is to be humble and never fall into the trap of pleasing others. Do it for Yourself, and by all means use whatever motivation works but please be careful of undue pressure.
