Tell everyone about it

One night after a party I made my first effort to quit after thirty years. I threw out everything to do with my habit, then told everyone I knew that I had quit smoking. Everyone kept watching me to catch me out, and kept offering me cigarettes. That was over twenty years ago, and I never smoked again! One morning at work during morning tea I found myself patting my pockets without knowing what I was looking for, and I realised it was only a habit. If you want to quit tell everyone so they will watch you, it helps.
