Book Reviews of Easy Way to Stop Smoking
Book Review: I read the book, went to the seminar today - still smoking, but wait, there's more....
Summary: 1 Stars
I first read the book because I got rave reviews from quite a few people I know. I read the book and for the first few days I was exactly how I wanted to be - I had stopped smoking but had no withdrawals. So then I gave the book to my Mum and she said the same so then my sister bought it and she loved it also.
But that only lasted a few days - for the three of us. I now know 14 people who read this book - only 2 of them are still non-smokers - one of those is the guy who ran the seminar I went to today. In fact, 3 out of the 14 people I know who read it were at the seminar today (out of 7 participants) and one of those had ALREADY done the course once AND a back-up session - then he started again months later (and the money-back guarantee only lasts 3 months). (Oh, by the way, I went to the seminar because I still had faith that the method worked and just thought there was something wrong with me.)
So I don't know where the 90% success rate comes from because of the people I know who've read the book there has only been a 14% success rate (and if you take out the guy who ran the seminar that rate drops to just under 8%). Now, considering the seminar was basically paying someone $550 to read me a book I've already read, I don't see how the seminar can have such a monumental difference in success rates. Maybe because they make you feel like such an idiot for continuing smoking that you're too embarrassed to ask for a refund?? Or could it be that you have to follow the instructions for the guarantee to be valid - and that the only instruction you have to follow is to never have another cigarette??
Book Review: 1 year and 6 months, still a non smoker!
Summary: 5 Stars
I smoked for 10 years and bought this book and I stopped smoking the first time. It has been one year and 6 months and I will never miss smoking. I gave the book to all of my smoker friends and almost all of them quit as well. This book does not brainwash you because when you are a smoker, you have already brainwashed yourself into thinking you need to smoke. I wish I could give this book to every smoker on the planet. Allen Carr knows what he is talking about.Book Review: The Easy way to stop smoking works!
Summary: 5 Stars
I stopped smoking immediately upon reading the book and that was nearly two years ago. I had smoked for nearly 40 years and tried everything to quit - this book worked!
Book Review: It worked!
Summary: 5 Stars
I quitted right after reading this book. Before that, I had been smoking for 12 years. I tried using my own will power, my family's support and various other methods. None of them worked. They just made me constantly frustrated, dependent and impatient around my family members.
This book helped me analyze why I smoke. I acquired internal strength from this book to deal with my addiction in a positive way. I could do it independently without relying on others' support. I even maintained a social life with my smoking friends while continuing quitting smoking successfully. It is easy and effective!
Book Review: Buy it now!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was introduced to this book at work. My supervisor has it and suggested that I give it a try after I told him I was going to quit smoking. (He has been nicotine free and loving it for 7 months now) After looking at the cover, I assumed it was a crock and this guy was making tons of money duping people into believing he truly had the "easy way" to quit. (Sounds more like the tobacco companies with the "easy way" to keep smoking). Anyways, I couldn't even make it over 24 hours cold turkey and willpower, so I decided to give it a try. I read through it with an open mind while smoking, and man... he understands every single thing that every smoker thinks and feels. Barely any of this book talks about the health scares or money, those tactics do not work and he knows it. He will not shove all that crap that smokers already know down their throat's.
It has only been 3 days so far for me, but I LITERALLY have not had any of those HUGE withdrawal "pangs", as he describes them, that I have had in the past. I love being smoke and nicotine free. Look at all of those 5 star ratings... this method works. Just follow his instructions. Read through it a few times if necessary. Most importantly, you absolutely have to know that you do indeed want to quit.
