• Slowly eliminate the places where you smoke. This will remove the various ‘comfort zones’ and narrow smoking places down to fewer places. Where you smoke will be less convenient to get to and not as comfortable.
• Reorganize or refresh your comfort zones.  Invest sweat, time, and money into the places you regularly smoke, like a fresh coat of paint or new furniture in previous smoking rooms and eliminate objects and any things that would have made smoking comfortable.  Meticulously detail the interior of your car  and deodorize to the best of your ability.  You will not want to smoke in these updated zones because you have labored or spent money, so now smoking in these newly updated areas would defeat the time, energy, and monetary values you have spent.
