The trick to stopping anything... is you have to figure out if it serves you or not. If it serves you well, continue. If it doesn't serve you, then you have to begin to place the feeling of PAIN to the action that you wish to quit.
For example, you want to stop drinking, for me... easy, I linked MASSIVE amounts of pain to drinking. The cost of the drinks, the cost of a DUI, the hangovers, the knowing that I act like an idiot when Im drunk, that you sometimes post stupid shit while drunk.
Ok, drinking has never been a problem for me, I hate the hangovers... but I used the same approach to quit smoking cigarettes.
And Claythan used the same approach to stop blowing guys.
Your mind is driven to seek pleasure and eliminate pain. So, as long as drinking or smoking is pleasureable in your mind, it will be nearly impossible to quit.
You have to change your neuroassociative conditioning. And for some, its very difficult.
