A lot of the women that I've seen, look cool with that haircut, more.
I also want to thank Ryan for his advice on that book. My wife is reading it, and it's really opening her eyes. Thanks!
That's good to hear. I really don't know why there isn't more knowledge of it. I gave a copy to my mother in law and it's worked so far for her too....
I just wanted to ad, before I read it I only half wanted to quit. I knew that I should, but I didn't really have any ambition to. I really thought I enjoyed it, and couldn't picture not smoking. I figured I'd try, and fully expected it to last a few days, just like it always had before. Never truthfully thought (to myself) that I'd quit. I didn't think I had the willpower to. I still really can't believe it's been over two months already.
Let me put it a little more in perspective. I can't believe it's been 2+ months already because it's gone by so fast, and with so little thought of smoking. I am very proud of myself (probably the most I've ever been) that I was able to stop. You'll always hear that it was the hardest thing someone's ever done. Well, for me, I'll admit it was not the hardest thing I've ever had to do. Honestly, it wasn't even hard.
We are brainwashed into thinking it is hard. Thinking that we are giving something up that our body needs and that is so completely addictive that it's almost impossible to quit for life. More importantly we're brainwashed into believing that they relieve stress and calm us down. It's actually the opposite; they create it. The need for nicotine is what makes you stressed. The cigarette just calms that and creates more stress (need.) The book makes the analogy that it is like purposely wearing a pair of shoes a few times to small just to feel that good feeling of relief when you get to take them off. I think it's a good analogy.
