Allen Carr's Easyway Worldwide: Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking
I bought that book over a year ago and read it, because people recommend it so much. Most people seem to think it works like magic.

I didn't work for me. Reading that book did nothing, absolutely nothing at all. I got a little angry and depressed because of it. I felt I was too smart for the book and it was full of false logic.

I really wanted to quit and was open minded about every possible quitting theory, but I still smoke. I read it once after, but I realised it's useless. I'm glad other people have found it helpful, but I guess I'm just not easily influenced... I just need to use my own will power and quit smoking the way I've quit other destrucive habbits in my life. Will power and determination.

Everyone has their own way, what works for you, might not work for me and vice versa.

There is nothing that is either "easy" or "difficult" Everything is relative. It depends on a person and a situation & million other things.

Form my own experiences I believe you need self-dicipline, the right state of mind and the right place and time to get rid of an addiction.

When life is good and smooth, everything gets surprisingly easy... Then you get a feeling "Wow, this was easy! Why didn't I do this before".

Well it wasn't easy before...
