Quit with Lana del Rey — Lesson 1: How to read the book

So, you have the Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking book. What's next? Well, you actually have to read it. But follow our instructions to read it, and while you read it, it's very important to follow book's instructions. Else, you'll fail (I'm the proof!).

Basic rules 

1. Do NOT Quit BEFORE the "Your last cigarette" chapter — This is VERY important. That's where me and most people failed. Why? I'll explain it later, just remember that you have to read the whole book before quitting, even if you don't "need" a smoke.
2. Do NOT create new fake reasons (illusions) — As you'll learn when you read the book, our "reasons" to smoke are illusions created by our addiction. The thing is, the book will show you how they work, and you won't have any other reason to smoke because you know they're illusions. So you MUSTN'T create more fake reasons if you want a smoke. Make a list with the reasons exposed in the book, and you'll be always smoking due to one of them. If you create new fake reasons, the book won't work. So, if you have any reasons that aren't explained on the book, write them down in a list as well, and attach an explanation on why they're illusions (e.g. "smoking is cool," it's not, it was the last century, but now you can't smoke even on a pub).
3. NEVER smoke again after your last cigarette — Well, this seems hard, but it isn't. You will hate smoking, just take care of don't smoke because all my friends do or some stupid action like that.

 Why not quit before the last cigarette chapter?

Well, the first and more obvious reason is, your last won't cigarette won't be as it should be — that chapter tells you what to do while smoking your last cigarette. So, if you've already quit before reading it... You won't have that perfect last cigarette!
The second, more important and more tricky reason is... A bit complicated.
Imagine you want a smoke because you're stressed, and you're reading the book. You read that smoking doesn't really relax you but it stresses you more than a non-smoker. Now you've removed the "relax/stress" reason from your brainwash. Now you don't want to smoke anymore, so you quit. Ok, that looks perfect.
But, tomorrow, you'll want to smoke because you're bored. And you won't know why boredom is also a fake reason yet. Or, if you've read it after quitting, you won't have had that last cigarette, so you'll perhaps create a million more excuses to smoke, because when you smoked your last cigarette, you didn't know it was your LAST cigarette. It's important for your subconscious to know it's your last cigarette and you said STOP.
But, if you wait until the end of the book, your brainwash will be already removed and you will experience an horrible last cigarette.

Some exceptions

Well, I think cases like mine are a bit expectional. I tried to quit 6 times with the Easyway method, and since I didn't follow the instructions above, I failed. But the 7th time, I did that. I removed my brainwash, but I quit before reaching the "last cigarette" chapter. The thing is, I had already read it. And even though I didn't know it was my last cigarette when I lit it, when I smoked a half I knew. It was disgusting. It was horrible. It tasted like crap. And I thought, "Why the hell am I doing that? I'm damaging me, I'm wasting money, and I don't even ENJOY this!" So I quit.
I encourage you guys to follow our method! The next lesson will be on How to survive to the first smokefree day.
