This week's top spotlight comes to us courtesy of Steve, a member of the About.com Smoking Cessation support forum.  With numerous quit attempts in his past (and three smoke-free years currently), Steve talks about the mindset that can lead to a smoking relapse.  
 

Thoughts of smoking left unchecked can lead to a return to full time smoking and the regret that comes with it.  Keep your quit program intact with vigilance and a positive mindset.

Have a great week, all.
