I realize that by writing this Hub I get into an over saturated scene of tips, articles, health care E-zines, specialists, hypnotists, so forth and so on, that want to teach and show you why stop smoking?. However, sometimes I just feel that there is not enough done (by us) about combating nicotine and tobacco addiction these days and that we, as those who are able to create and promote different informational resources have the duty to help people all over the world make certain decisions and live a better life.

Generally speaking, there is not much to be said about how to quit smoking and why should people stop this awful habit right now. You can probably find thousands of reasons. However, something always seems to be missing. A very important piece of the big puzzle is lost and this is the main reason why people can't understand the necessity of stopping smoking today.

On the other hand and based on my own experience I can say that not all people are that strong in order to make it happen. I've successfully quit smoking a few years ago and since them I never touched a cigarette again. However, that particular decision was attentively formed in about one year. I got sick and tired of wasting my time, money and health on something that doesn't bring anything positive in your life.

One day I woke up, took a cold shower, and said: "Enough is enough!" I threw my cigarettes in the thrash and believe it or not I didn't inhale one single puff since that day. It was not an easy decision. Later that day I took a piece of paper and a pen and wrote down:

Lung Cancer
I don't want to have lung cancer! Millions are dying because of lung cancer. Today their statistics are going to decrease with one potential victim. I quit!

Heart Attacks!
Quitting smoking is going to make me stay away from them.

Stroke
Dying from stroke is pathetic in my opinion. That's why I decided to start a new healthy life free of any possible addictions!

Emphysema & Bronchitis
Two well known aspects of smoking secondary effects. By inhaling tobacco smoke you increase your chances to suffer of these syndromes by 70%.

Cancer of the Throat
This is bad, it's really bad. It is going to kill you before you realize what is going on. Believe me, I've read about so many cases that I can't possible think out how would it be possible to get out once you are positively infested with this horrible disease: cancer of the throat.

Infertility, Impotence & Pregnancy Issues
Do I need to say more?

Premature Aging of The Skin
Ladies, hello?

Amputations due to Peripheral Vascular Disease
I'm positively sure you don't want that to happen!

Financial Cost
Money, money, money! Less money in your pocket!

Bad Breath and Stained Fingers & Teeth
That's really, really bad!


Well folks, this gross picture reveals what throat cancer is all about. Please avoid that, quit smoking today!

Smoking Causes Impotency!

Well, these are only ten reasons that I noted down that evening. This helped me stay away from cigarettes since then. It offered me the necessary reasons to stop. It game me the required confidence. It made me think each day that I have a family, a wife, kids...

Smoking is going to kill you sooner or later and all these cool stories about people that smoked and lived one hundred years are just well made promotions and ads by cigarette producing companies world wide.

Think about it, and while you meditate, take a look at these pictures.

The information that was exposed above represents just a tiny particle of what cigarettes can really do to you. Don't let it happen. You deserve a better existence. You deserve to enjoy your current life and contribute to the improvement of others around you.

I managed to quit smoking and you are going to be successfully too. It is just a matter of time, till you gather all the interior strength and confidence that you need. One thing is clear, you must always strive to get what you are looking for. Never, never, absolutely never give up and results are going to appear.

Those who suffer from smoking and claim that they simply don't want to put an end to their addiction are too weak to do it. They also need help. So please, after reading this "Why Stop Smoking?" hub (article), take some time, go for a walk, meditate a little bit, take a deep, deep breath and think about it.

Quit smoking - change your life, (learn how to quit smoking)! concentrate your attention, time and money on more important things. Try practicing some sports, start and active way of life! There is no best way to quit smoking. A correct approach makes the difference.

So do you folks understand why stop smoking right now?

The photos say it all! Everyone that successfully quits has their own Eureka moment that gives them the motivation to do it. Horrible pictures but hopefully they will cause a few people to give up - so well done for putting them on line
