Legendary goalkeeper, "Dynamo" Alexander Shovkovsky said how to quit smoking.

In his book "Everything in Your Hands" he confessed that he had been smoking since the 8th grade.

"This continued until 2000 inclusive. The decision to quit took a long time, but on December 31, 2000 I still smoked.

I woke up on January 1, 2001, and since then I have not taken a cigarette.

It is generally accepted that this is willpower, but I was preparing for it. For a start, I tracked the moments when I smoke in pleasure, and when just out of habit.

I understood for myself that with beer, coffee and after eating is a pleasure, everything else is a matter of habit. And with the habit you can and need to fight, "- shared Shovkovsky.

Recall that in December 2016 Shovkovsky decided to quit with his career player.
