I wrote this post this morning as I sat in self disgust at having once again thrown away another day by refusing to commit to the right choice!
[center]NICOTINE ADDICTION!!!![/center]
Just one is all it takes to become or continue to be enslaved in a life of dependency on cigarettes! DAILY - You can never get away! You smoke one and then another, and another, and another! You feel you cannot stop - that you are powerless. You are controlled by it!
It robs you of self-esteem. When you smoke, you will hate yourself. Self-loathing and self disgust is a terrible feeling. It will trick you - telling you: "It's OK - It's just one." TOO LATE - you are already hooked. You fell for the CON JOB - AGAIN! It will try to justify itself as being the right choice at every opportunity.
It invades your soul until all you can think about is how and when you will get your next fix. You will feel you have no choice. That any other choice you wish to make in your life is worthless...that [u]nothing[/u] else is more important - except IT!!! It will overwhelm you with it's power.
As you take that first puff, a little voice says "[size=1]Ahhh...[/size]". Then you say: "No....why am I doing this?" The little voice isn't finished though. It was saying: "Ahhh....Haaaa....GOTCHA! HAVE ANOTHER!" You are now a smoker.
This is what you have to look forward to, should you choose to smoke.
[center]IT IS IRRATIONAL THINKING!!!![/center]
Whatever your addicted mind is saying to you is a lie! NOT TO BE BELIEVED!
The truth is in your heart - not in your mind. (It will trick you with that line too - that in your heart you want to smoke - LIE)
The TRUTH is:
Nicotine and the thousands of other chemicals in tobacco is POISON! It will rob you of your health, wealth, courage, confidence, and self worth. To smoke guarantees you a life robbed of joy and happiness!!!
[center]Am I a nicotine processing machine???[/center]
[center]OR[/center]
[center]A rational thinking human being who wants:[/center]
HEALTH
ENERGY
MONEY
SELF CONFIDENCE
PEACE OF MIND
COURAGE
SELF-ESTEEM
SELF-RESPECT
TRANQUILITY
FREEDOM
This is my remember letter, for those times when I may forget what my real choice is.
