Yikes, don’t make it sound so terrifying! Every year you would talk big but no actions. What is the use of only saying beautiful words? Last year didn’t you also make this kind of a resolution, and what was the result? You didn’t stick with it. A year went by and you didn’t accomplish anything. Look, my plan is very simple, just four words: I will quit smoking. I will smoke a little bit less every day. Over the year, I will be able to totally give it up.
