Read About My I'VE QUIT Process
and Quit Smoking for Life!  It's the
best way to stop smoking for good....     


I-V-E  Q-U-I-T describes the 7 steps of my stop smoking process:

  • INTENTIONSthe beginning of your stop smoking "change" process

  • VALUESyour foundation for new thoughts, feelings and behaviors

  • EMOTIONS- your "biggest" obstacle to change and freedom from smoking


  • QUESTIONS- Changing in the way you "think" about your stop smoking process

  • UNDERSTANDING- your new perceptions about your "smoking urges"

  • INTERVENTIONSturning new thoughts, feelings and behaviors into new stop smoking actions

  • THINKING- an automatic change in the way you "think" about smoking- and the road to freedom from smoking for life!




My stop smoking formula- change your smoker's P.I.E.
until your "thinking" changes for good.


Your smoker's P.I.E. is your Physical, Intellectual, and Emotional commitments to smoking.

All you need to stop smoking is a smart process to help change your thinking.....

My I'VE QUIT Process will walk you through each important step and help you stop smoking easily, naturally, and permanently. 

You will learn to.......

  • Empower your INTENTIONS and create an unbreakable will to quit smoking      

  • Identify and leverage your personal VALUES in the stop smoking process    

  • Master your EMOTIONS and make it easy and fun to quit smoking   

  • Ask powerful QUESTIONS that facilitate and encourage "real change"   

  • UNDERSTAND your urges and learn to accept them without smoking  

  • INTERVENE in the right manner and moment to ensure your success        

  • Change the way you THINK about smoking for the rest of your life   

 

Do you know why people fail to stop smoking....

People fail to quit smoking on their own because of a lack of "real change" in the way they "think" about smoking.  Even when they try to quit stop using various quit smoking products, they fail again and again.  But our mind is a powerful tool.  And if you can't stop smoking, you're not giving your mind the credit it deserves.

You see, our minds naturally want to preserve the way we already "think"- even when it doesn't make any sense to us.  You may really want to stop smoking for good reasons such as saving money or feeling healthier.  And those are great reasons to quit smoking.

But they are not enough on their own to create real and lasting change in the way you "think" about smoking. 

The fact is you will continue to smoke until you train your mind to support a new way of "thinking" about smoking.





"I have tried more quit smoking products and gimmicks than you can imagine.  It took your simple process to finally get it through my "thick" head that I could really change and quit smoking for good.  Great job! Great program!"
- Frank Martin



Here's the problem...
Your mind keeps you hooked on smoking because you already support the behavior.  In order to break this pattern and quit smoking, you need to change the way you think about smoking for good.

However, you can't just decide to change your 'thinking' and be done with it.  You need an aid in the process to rewire your mind and make these new "thoughts" automatic.  Just like a habit.


Change is a process.  And it requires small adjustments in your behavior (Physical), your thoughts (Intellectual), and your feelings (Emotional). 

When it comes to quitting smoking, each piece of your SMOKERS P.I.E. is important to your overall success because each part has a direct effect on your ability to stop smoking and stay quit.  The three pieces of the P.I.E. work together to influence your overall thoughts, decisions, and behaviors in the stop smoking process.

The best way to stop smoking honestly and permanently is to disarm your physical, intellectual, and emotional commitments to smoking and replace them with new commitments to yourself. 

 

It doesn't matter if smoking is a habit or an addiction...

Lot's of people make excuses about why they can't stop smoking.  They think about smoking in terms of a habit or an addiction.  And they believe the problem (and behavior) is somehow outside of their control.  People often blame their failure to quit smoking on their personal set of circumstances. But the fact is that most people never change the way they THINK about smoking.  Only the way they approach it.

The truth about quitting smoking is that it really doesn't matter if smoking is a habit or an addiction.  It's not important.  "Change" is what really matters

You really can stop smoking for life.  All you need is a method to create real and lasting change... It's the best way to stop smoking! for good


Why most quit smoking products don't work...
Most quit smoking products attempt to provide a one-shot "magic bullet" to help smokers stop smoking.  Some products help you cope with urges.  Some scare you into quitting with facts and statistics.  And others rely on hypnotic techniques that only produce short-term results. None are the best way to stop smoking.

These products fail miserably because they don't help you overcome your commitments towards smoking.  And they don't address thePhysical, Intellectual and Emotional pieces of your smoker's P.I.E.  Therefore, they don't support real and lasting change towards smoking.


Cognitive Dissonance and Smoking...

Cognitive dissonance can either help you stop smoking or help protect your reasons to continue smoking. 

Cognitive dissonance refers to the fact that people relate to information which support their currently held views and attempt to avoid information that challenges those views.  When they cannot avoid dissonant viewpoints, people tend to selectively hear only that part of the information that supports there views and opinions.  It's a proven fact!

Because most stop smoking products only focus on one part of the smoker's P.I.E., people often justify smoking using the other two pieces.  They may accept that smoking is unhealthy (physical), but increase their personal value towards smoking (intellectual &emotional).

For example, A smoker might look for positive effects of smoking and believe that smoking reduces tension (emotional) or keeps him or her from gaining weight (intellectual).  A smoker might even believe that the risk to health from smoking is negligible compared with the danger of automobile accidents (reducing the importance of the dissonant cognition).

In addition, a smoker may consider the enjoyment he or she gets from smoking to be a very important part of his or her life (increasing the importance of consonant cognitions).

You see....

Quitting requires you to deal with "cognitive dissonance"  on each P.I.E level.

I know first-hand about change and quitting.  I failed to stop smoking using a number of products and programs.  It felt impossible to quit smoking.   But when I finally had enough cognitive dissonance and aggravation, I did my own research on how to stop smoking.  I utilized my background in psychology and business change management to create this very unique and remarkable stop smoking program.  It's simply the best way to stop smoking.  And it will change the way you think about smoking for 
Today, the I'VE QUIT Process is creating tremendous results for people all over the country and helped them stop smoking for good.
