Smokin Barista

One my baristas at Starbucks has made a new year's resolution to stop smoking. I asked him if he had started today. No he had not. He was down to 3 packs. He did not want to waste the money they represented. He said that he was planning to do it cold turkey and later if needed to use the patch. His mom has done it that way. Because she was successful he felt that he had a genetic predisposition to be successful in the same way. He thanked me for my interest.

As my dad would say, the toughest door in door to door sales is your own. Unless you get out of your own door you are not going to effect change. This is true with most any habit. You have to do it. All the motivations in the world are not going to work unless you start.
