A Well Balanced Decision

71.365

 

To quit or not to quit? That has been my question. For over a year, actually. But, after balancing the pros and cons of smoking (which obviously weighed heavy on the cons side) and journaling each cigarette I smoke for the past several weeks, I have finally made the decison to quit. Of course, what good is a decision without taking action, right?

 

I'm reminded of the old adage which goes something like this: Three frogs were sitting on a log. Two made a decision to jump. How many were left? One? Wrong. The two frogs only made a decision to jump; they did not actually do it. All three are still sitting on the log.

 

So, here's the deal... Today, I have made the decision to stop smoking. Tomorrow (don't laugh), I'm going to actually do it. And, as part of my journey I'm going to add a counter with my 365 project which will tally my smoke free days. The way I see it, 365 has already been an experience of personal enlightenment, so why not incorporate this significant act of self love into it? AND, the timing is just right, since day two will be on Saturday, and FGR's group pick for that day is "Screams of Anguish". Lol...that should be an easy one.

 

For 365 and FGR's group pick Balance.
