I missed a Medicine Buddha retreat. I've felt bad ever since. I heard from my dharma teacher yesterday from whom I was going to receive teachings. He told me not to feel bad, but to quit smoking.
Smoking is a major obstacle to my Buddhist practice and my life in general. I'm going to quit. It won't be easy, but I think I've done more difficult things in my life.

GOOD LUCK!
It won't be easy, but most things worthwhile rarely are. I quit effectively after years of smoking. Haven't really looked back.
When you're ready, you'll quit.
