Inspirations and Motivations
When I started my quit, the knowledgeable and proven HOFer’s emphasized that you must quit for yourself and no one else. The rationale is that you must want it and in the end, you will hold grudges and be resentful against those who wanted you to quit.
I agree with this 100%, but I also feel that you must have an inspiration and a real reason to quit. While posting roll is a must to make sure you keep your word since times will get rough, I think you need an individual or certain purpose to carry you through the fog, the cravings and the triggers. Your motivation will constantly remind yourself internally, that this or that is why I kicked the nic bitch to the curb.
For me, it was my little buddy. He turned two during my ten day countdown to 100. The excitement on his face when I would pull in driveway, his unconditional love when I got home from work, or just playing with him and his toys is all I needed. Just the thought of not being around for the milestones in his life gave me a panic attack.
This was for you my buddy. I love you a lot and Daddy eliminated one possible thing that could take me from you earlier than necessary. You will never have to ask me to quit, it’s already happened for 102 days and it will stay that way.
