in order to let go of an unhelpful habit, you first need to accept it and choose to replace it with something else.
choose the new, good habit you want to replace the bad one with. for example; smoking to creative writing.
don't try to force it out. resisting will make the habit stronger in your mind. just do something better, that you prefer.
find a positive distraction, something you enjoy.
associate with people and places that value the habit you want to develop.
make new friendships that will support you through improving yourself.
manage your stress.
meditation, exercise, deep breathing, or anything that relaxes you.
it takes 30 days to break a bad habit, just keep that in mind.
