Studies show some individuals who create positive mental pictures of the outcome of their self-help efforts actually change faster and the improvements last longer, if they have these fantasies of success several times a day. For example, a smoker might imagine being free of the fear of harming his/her health, free of feeling hooked by a drug, free of social criticism, free of smelly ash trays and bad breath, free of dead taste buds and stained teeth, and so on. When these things happen, praise (self-praise) can be a powerful re-inforcer.
Keep smoke FREE-kN! heh!
