Maybe you could empty the ashtray every morning and count the cigarette butts at the end of the day. Regardless method to decide, make sure they are compatible and diligently count every cigarette you smoke. Keep this is essential for success and the gradual cessation of smoking.
Step Down
Once the topic has remained for about a week, you should have a fair idea of the number of cigarettes smoked each day.

If, for instance, found that 23 cigarettes is the usual number of cigarettes smoked daily, conscious display 22 cigarettes and smoke do not vote more than the day of one, two and three. They come four days, was out of 21 cigarettes and the promise of it for the next three days. Repeat this process again and again until the number has been reduced to zero.
Delay
The delay is another good tactic for phasing. When you feel like having a cigarette, be forced to wait another 10 minutes before lighting a cigarette. In the desire to come, wait another 15 minutes. Continue to delay gratification to have a smoke until you can wait an hour or two. This is a great way to slowly break your habit.
