Men and women’s brains are different, giving us different ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. This affects our success at quitting smoking.
Men’s brains are highly compartmentalized (picture an ice cube tray) so one side of their brain has a hard time communicating with the other (i.e. they can’t multitask…duh, huh?). They also have an innate sense to conquer. So, when they decide to quit smoking they are able to focus on one thing and “have” to conquer it.
Women’s brains on the other hand are empathetic. We have a low ability to control emotions. This means when we try to quit smoking, we are more tied to the emotional side of why we smoke(d) and will give in to those emotions. We also do not have that sense of conquest like men. So when we fail we express our emotions by crying over why we failed (which was our emotions) and round and round we go.
Now ladies, go find a man! Team up with a male friend, husband (your own), partner, or co-worker and ask them to be your quit smoking buddy. We will use their sense of conquest and focus to help us to stop smoking. They won’t even see we are using them because they can only concentrate on one thing at a time right? That one thing is us and how they can be our hero by helping us quit smoking.

You Have the power to quit smoking!
