Quit Smoking For Others

Here are some of the reasons smokers want to quit smoking:

  • "My husband can't stand it when I smoke - that is why I quit."
  • "My wife is trying to quit, so I will stop just to support her."
  • "My kids get sick when I smoke in front of them. They cough, sneeze, and nag me to death. I quit for them."
  • "My doctor told me not to smoke as long as I am his patient, so I quit to get him off my back."
  • "I quit for my dog."
Why smokers will relapse
The reason is because the primary motivation for quit smoking is quitting for the sake of others. Therefore the smoker tend to feel that he is depriving of himself something that he truly wants.

The trigger point for the smoker to return to smoking is when that someone he quit for disappoint or did something wrong.The smoker will retaliate by smoking another cigarette.

The success in quitting smoking is not getting off cigarettes, but rather the ability to stay off from smoking.

The real reason for quitting smoking
It is imperative for the smoker to realize that the person who benefit directly from quit smoking is himself. Although your family members and friends will benefit, but you as a smoker will feel in control of your life.

You will feel a surge in pride and a greatly improved self-esteem. Instead of feeling enslaved and deprived of cigarettes, you will feel good about yourself and being appreciative to have been able to break free from such a deadly, powerful addiction.

Always reward yourself when you are not lighting up another cigarette because you have truly shown that you have break free from a destructive addiction.
