Quit Smoking Excuse #3

I enjoy smoking so much, I don’t want to give up my one pleasure

Ok, so you will allow yourself to believe smoking is a joyful experience, instead of a great steak dinner, a walk on the beach with your wife, dancing with your daughter on her wedding day, a cruise to Alaska in your retirement, or a sunny warm day in a hammock nap in your later years?  If you continue this pleasure, you will be taking away all pleasures, big and small, for this one “enjoyment”.  How can you substitute pleasure for having the ability to breathe?  This one makes no sense!  If you had the choice, to A. Breathe Well for the Rest of your life, or B. “Pleasure” from taking a drag on your smoke for the next 20 years, and then not breathing.
Hmmmm…..

Smoking is NOT Enjoyable

If there is one excuse or reason to smoke, this one has to be the most untrue of them all!  It was completely created by the marketing companies and the cigarette industry!  There is even a brand that talks only about pleasure.  It is not pleasurable, if anything, it is uncomfortable.

How could standing in the cold, all by yourself be pleasurable?  How can you enjoy something that really does not begin with some happiness, but with control?  It is your nicotine craving that you are fulfilling, not your pleasure center in the brain.  Smoking brains get this mixed up, and it is completely a created train of thought.

When you eat, you feel the food in your mouth, the taste of the meal, the true happy tastes of nutrition.  This is a pleasurable experience, and it makes you feel great!  Do not mistake the control of your propaganda marketing cigarette ad for pleasure.  Do not let the control of nicotine mistake you for enjoyment.  You are only believing this, to keep your current mindset functioning.

If this is clicking, great!  If not, it takes some time to tear this one down.  Watch yourself in the mirror one time when you smoke.  Do you look like you are enjoying yourself?  Objectively review this situation, with a new open train of thought.  The facts are shocking when it finally clicks.
