Did he? I didn't know that. It basically just says the same things over and over again but it seems to work for a lot of people. Pretty much:
-that you aren't giving up anything, you are freeing yourself from a drug addiction that's killed more people than all wars ever
-don't focus on how long you can go without a cigarette because then you'll feel like you're depriving yourself of something, when you're not... every time you think you want a cigarette you're supposed to think 'hey, how fabulous! I am a non-smoker and I am free!'
-don't do nicotine replacement or avoid social situations - same reason as above
-don't ever think you're over the addiction and have just one cigarette because it will cost you £20,000 (or whatever the cost would be if you kept smoking for your whole life)
That's pretty much it.
