* Get more active - walk instead of driving or taking the bus and use the stairs instead of the lift. Exercise helps you relax and boosts morale.
* Change your routine to break the association of smoking with certain times of day or places.
* Change your surroundings when the urge to smoke seizes you. Research has shown that even a short walk can quash nicotine cravings.
* Put something other than a cigarette into your mouth. Try carrots, apples, celery, raisins, or sugarless gum.
* Tell all your friends and family that you've already quit - you'll be embarrassed if they catch you smoking.
* Stop carrying or hoarding cigarettes - at home, in your bag or at work. Don't 'borrow' any.
* Throw away all your cigarettes and matches. Hide or give away your lighters and ashtrays.
* Visit your dental hygienist and have your teeth cleaned to get rid of tobacco stains. Resolve to keep them that way.
* Enjoy having a clean taste in your mouth and maintain it by brushing your teeth frequently and using a mouthwash.
* Avoid a heavy intake of alcohol, caffeine, or other stimulants or mood-altering substances.
* Pay a family member or friend
