How to curb smoking.....?

How to curb smoking habit? Well, there are as many solutions as many smokers. You would probably doubt the statement. Let me make it clear for you. Equation is very simple! Every smoker has his/her own reasons of smoking. Some people smoke for recreation, others for getting temporary rid of stress and others for having time to chat or relax in busy routine of the office. Some do as they think that they look bold. There is a long list. Only smoker knows exact reason that why he smokes. On the same line, smoking can be only quit if smoker wants to quit. I present a case study before you. Government of Pakistan has made the printing of a picture assured on cigarette packing. This picture shows a patient with oral cancer due to smoking. This picture has stopped how many people from smoking God knows better but cigarette demand is there with its full peak.

                            It is understood that a person exchange things. Man decides between two or more choices. Do you get this? If you want yourself to quit smoking suggest yourself a powerful alternative. Though it is harmful yet smoking has its charms and attractions. You have to work hard to find a cigarette alternative. It depends on you and of course on your reason for smoking. For example if you smoke for feeling bold you can pick plastic bags and rapers and can put them in dustbin from your surrounding that might be your school, office, home or a bus station. Believe me! this is a very bold act. If you smoke to relieve from stress then start meditating, get motivation. Why to stress whole body by smoking and that just for getting momentary relief? Come on! Think positive.  Yeah! you can do it.
                          Explore yourself. Find the reason of smoking. Ask yourself, "Why do I smoke?"
As soon as you come to know underlying cause of your smoking curb it by providing yourself cigarette alternative. There are possibilities, there are choices and there are alternatives. You need to be just with yourself.
