Here is a tip that helps me. I get a pint Mason jar, with lid. Fill it with ciggie butts. Add a teaspoon of water. Close the lid tight, and put it in a dark place for a few days. When you get the urge to light up, just open the lid of your Mason jar and take a big sniff.... I know it sounds gross, but the smell is enough to send some powerful images to the brain.. and none of them are good ... it helps kill that "romantic cool" image that has been ingrained in our brains from adds, movies, TV, magazines, etc. Sometimes, the stink of a dirty ashtray, or trash can loaded with butts, is not incentive enough. If your inclinded with a good and vivid imagination, try it.
