Why Stop Smoking - A Few Good Reasons

By: David Smythe Most of the smokers want to leave smoking behind to get a grip of their lives, and a good control of their health, but, is that all that matters?

If you are a smoker, you must have thought at least a thousand times till now that you should seriously give up the habit. Everyone around you - your family and close friends especially - must be goading you on to kick the butt. With all these pressures, it is no wonder that you might be seriously considering saying adieu to your cigarettes forever. But at the same time, something deters you. It is the question - 'Many people have tried and failed. So why should I succeed?'

If that is your contention, then you must certainly read this article. It is true that several people have tried in vain to curb their smoking addiction, but the real reason why they failed was, they never had a genuine reason for giving up the habit. Think about it this way. Nicotine is a very powerful addictive and it causes a false sense of euphoria in the brain. When a person is under the influence of this addictive, how can he or she think of trivial things like health? Everyone is a diehard optimist. Diseases always happen to the other person, never to us. That is the way we think.

That is one major reason why a person can never be threatened on the basis of health. With every fag they take, they are killing themselves. But they never realize that they are just a step away from all the diseases that are mentioned.

Warning a smoker about the risks that are involved in smoking is as good as banging your head against the wall. Every other cigarette packet that is sold in the market contains a statutory warning, but that does not prevent any smoker from grabbing a cigarette.

Hence, a different approach must be used. The question 'Why stop smoking at all?' must be answered in different ways. Now, you want to give up the smoking habit. OK. Do not think about the health repercussions that may occur in the future; but think of your current life. Is your life what you really want it to be?

In all likelihood, you probably cannot run anything close to a mile without sounding like the big bad wolf that troubled little red riding hood. In case you lived an active life before succumbing to smoking, you would have noticed the marked decrease in performance once you started smoking. Are you truly living like you hoped to? Can you wake up and smell the roses? Probably not, with all that smoke hanging around.

Then, have a closer look at yourself in the mirror. See those premature wrinkles on your face? Those darkened lips? And, God bless you if there really are, spots on your tongue and ulcers in your mouth? Smoking causes all of these and more. Smoking may make you look macho (what an erroneous notion!), but it will take away all your good looks and your youth too.

Even if that doesn't work, think about your kids. Now that is one thing that you cannot shut your eyes too. If your smoking were to take you away from earth, who would give them their share of paternal love? Trust me, several smokers have given up the smoking habit, just because they cared for their kids.

So, the next time you ask yourself 'Why stop smoking?' give yourself these answers. I am sure you wouldn't light another cigarette with an easy conscience after that.
