Possibly you like the slight head rush, maybe you simply like the feeling of smoke striking your lungs, or perhaps you simply appreciate the discussions that occur between smokers as they share in their basic custom. In any case, whatever the reason, you are just fascinated with smoking since it is so hip and cool. You've probably had your first shot hanging around a group of friends who smoked, or when you were staying away from home for studies. In any case, regardless of how you started, it was cool, fun, and energizing back then.
The fun, however, has now fizzled out. Today you hate brushing your teeth because it hurts. You have stained your teeth and fingers and feel fatigued throughout the day. Smoking has surely done more harm and no good. And keep this in mind that life passes by much quicker than you might suspect it will. You have certainly heard this before, perhaps over and over, but that is because it is valid. Now you might be a youthful lad, 25 years of age, smoking 10 cigarettes a day; yet before you know it, you might be a 40-year-old father with intense COPD or mouth cancer.
And you have rationalized your action all these years saying you are just enjoying the prime of your life. You have reasoned that you will smoke for a few more years and simply quit. The prime of your life will soon fade away, but your addiction will not. It will only grow stronger over the years.
But hey friend, things aren’t that dreadful either. Just remember, quitting is possible. Motivation and willpower- these are two abilities that are imperative to your development as an individual, and they apply here too. No conceivable advantage of smoking right now can compensate for the damage you'll need to fix after you get to be dependent. Seek for some motivation by reading some quite diaries of the individuals who have been smoking for a considerable length of time. You can feel their disappointment and anguish get through their words on the screen. They all curse their first pack.
And if you are thinking what would you get after quitting, let me assure you that the benefits are nothing short of amazing! Your tongue would no more be brown, your fingers not stained anymore. Your teeth won’t hurt and would feel healthy, you’ll wake up refreshed with less anxiety. You car wouldn’t smell of smoke anymore and food would taste like food. And most importantly, do it for the happiness you’d feel after having quit. You’d surely be proud of yourself for saying this NO.
