Whether it be a friend, co-worker or family member, someone else on your journey will keep you motivated and accountable. Perhaps it can be someone who will go to the gym with you or someone who is also trying to stop smoking. Talk about what you are doing.
A buddy helps keep you accountable
Consider joining a support group. Having someone with whom to share your struggles and successes makes the work easier and the mission less intimidating.
If you are married, it is important that your spouse knows who your accountability partner is. Usually a spouse is too close to you to make a good accountability partner.
Choose someone who will be brutally honest with you. You need someone who will hold you accountable. Look for someone who has the qualities you lack.
