The idea to give up smoking might seem really great, but what are you actually going to get out of it for the effort and commitment it requires? Here are some benefits of giving up smoking for you to consider.
Benefit Number One You'll look better.
There really isn't anything glamorous or attractive about smoking.
Despite the Hollywood treatment, no one looks particularly good while they're in the act (especially if they're shivering outside during a rainstorm).
But beyond that, smoking stains your teeth and your fingers and leads to premature wrinkling of your skin.
Benefit Number Two You'll be cleaner and your home will be cleaner.
Although smokers tend not to notice it, cigarette smoke clings to everything in the environment.
In the same way that it stains teeth, it dirties all the furniture, fabrics and wall treatments in a room.
Once you've quit smoking, you'll wonder how you ever tolerated it.
Benefit Number Three You'll save a boatload of money.
Smoking is expensive and a more expensive all the time.
It really seems ridiculous to spend that much money on something that has so many negative effects.
Just about anything else you could spend that money on would be an improvement.
Imagine what you might do with the money you free up when you quit.
Benefit Number Four Your sense of self-worth will increase.
You'll feel better about yourself, and if you have children you feel much better about the example you're setting for them.
Benefit Number Five And of course a major, major benefit of giving up smoking is your improved health.
It's difficult to overstate how devastating smoking is as a public health issue.
The major killers of heart disease and cancer are both closely tied to smoking.
But what's more important to you is your personal health.
The bottom line is that you continue to smoke you have both a poorer quality of life and a shorter life than you'd have if you quit now.
I'm pretty sure you know in your heart that you should stop smoking.
You may even tried before and failed and have become discouraged.
Don't be.
Giving up smoking, especially on your own, can be difficult in most people who become successful quitters don't make it on the first attempt.
