 Yesterday we talked about the hazardous effects of smoking. Today I will teach you simple and easy to do ways on how to quit smoking, the many benefits of quitting smoking and the many kinds of cancers caused by smoking. But first and foremost, do you know any person in your life that you consider as a chain smoker? The reason for this is for you to have a target; now if the person you know is yourself, then your motivation is geared towards yourself, but if it’s another person, then that person is your motivation.
Let me start by saying that the only reason why “Man made his pencil with erasers, is because he knows that he’s Imperfect”. Indeed man is imperfect, but this imperfection does not excuse you at all. Yes we are all imperfect, but this does not mean that we should also neglect our health… you see quitting is as easy as 123.

The steps are simple, but the question is, Are you man enough to take the challenge? Or will you also fail like the others? Intrigued? Good then, because I’m motivating you, because I want you to be healthy! So to start off, I believe that this vice is one of the major causes of many serious health problems.
To prove this, let me site a few examples. Women who smoke are 30% more likely to have lung disorders compared to those of non-smokers. In cases of pregnant women; babies of smoking mothers have been found to be smaller by at least 200grams at birth, the worse part is these babies have a larger percentage of dying a few days after their birth.
Another is, young children of smoking parents have doubled their susceptibility to coughs, colds, and soar throat. The sad part in this scenario is that children of smokers are more likely to have poor physical and intellectual development, and is more likely to take up smoking when they grow up! In the case of other people, smoking may at any given time provoke any asthmatic attacks to your non smoker friends with asthma.
So smokers, if you place little value to yourself, remember that you also have loved ones, so protect them, and be a good role model. There are people who say that since everyone is destined to die, then they choose to die by smoking, but when they are faced with complications, they now want to live.
But what if it’s all too late; Still prevention is better than cure, right? So here are ways to quit this vice. But first and foremost the decision is yours, because once you decide to stop, then half the battle is already won. Next is to persuade a smoker to stop together with you.
Lastly ask your family to remind you each time you are tempted to smoke. With regards to the many benefits, well one is, you would have a healthy heart, fresher breaths, whiter teeth, healthy lungs and body and so many more. Talking about being healthy, a person who does not smoke is free from cancers like lung cancer, as well as those of kidney, bladders and pancreas.
As an addition, here are three ways to stop smoking. "Mark the day", "Slowly kill", and "The Program". Mark the day means you smoke as usual until your marked day of stopping, and when you say stop; do so religiously. The Slowly kill process on the other hand means, you slowly cut down the cigarette sticks that you consume in a day, until you reach the point of not having any at all.
And lastly, the program means that you should join an organized group to help you with your desired end. These groups can help you through counselings, discussions, role-plays and video shows. These are proven programs and can help you reach your goal. You can do it!
