We Quit Cigarettes

[Kiki]

A good start to end your habit, but doesn't really count because they were closed

I know....

I'm in big trouble because they're open today and I just asked for my iced coffee but she hasn't been able to make it yet so I'm going to go back in an hour.

Today actually makes one whole week that I have not had a Starbucks.

I have never had a Starbucks.

They aren't allowed to use the ice machine yet.
I told her go ahead and make it I'll just put ice at home.

All over town. The closest is approximately 6 miles from the house.

I just checked and there are three within less than two miles of me.

I probably live about 5 miles from city limits. You live within city limits.

The closest one to me is like a 30/40 minute drive. I had Starbucks yesterday on my way home

I read this in Reader's Digest many years ago:

Self discipline is deciding what you want.

When I break decisions down to either/or, it's usually pretty easy to decide what to do.

Another thing that helps with cumulative behavior, like eating/drinking/spending is to look at the cumulative effects. I didn't think I spent that much at the local grocery store until I added it all up for last year. I'm on track to cut over $1200 off it this year.
