Let's get one thing straight. Wanting is very different from deciding. It may seem like the same thing but really it's not. There is a sea of difference between wanting to quit and actually deciding to quit. You have probably wanted to quit the very day that you started smoking, but as can be clearly seen, it just didn't happen.

On the other hand, deciding is a very serious issue. It is something that can affect our self esteem and our dignity because once we decide then we have to stick to the decision right? And that is not going to be easy. Any decision that one takes must be based on sound common sense and in the case of smoking too, this holds true. I would support any smokers decision to quit; but my request to every such prospective quitter is that they should get their facts right.

The problem is that if the prospective quitter is not proceeding in the right track, there is a greater tendency to fail. And once a person tries and fails, it is going to be all the more difficult to break the habit.

Quitting the smoking is a desire that chain smokers wish to come true. Have confidence: If you can believe yourself then you have already won half of the battle. Try to re- picture your days when you have proved your willpower. The only thing that you need is to boost up your spirits again. Try with the limitations of smoking first. Think how smoking is eating up your body and then go for the advantages. Start applying them on yourself as quitting smoking will increase you lifespan, will make you feel better.
