If you need reasons to stop smoking how about lung cancer?
I just saw a commercial on TV. It was from New York state where I live. They were talking about how important it is to quit smoking.
One of the things that they said was that quitting smoking is difficult.
They also said that telling your family you've got lung cancer is much harder.
The commercial showed a man, walking around and obviously troubled, and then he picks up a handkerchief and he starts coughing. His blood is coming out on the handkerchief.
It really is kind of sort of a gross commercial, but it brought the point home, so I thought that maybe I'd make this post and video about smoking and lung cancer.
Now I'm no expert on lung cancer, and I thank God that no one that I know has ever had lung cancer. I probably beat the odds when I decided to stop smoking. Anyone that had been a smoker should be thankful for quitting and not getting something as serious as this.
But I know that many people smoke, and end up getting lung cancer. It's just a terrible fact. I urge you to consider that if you are a smoker.
You know that there is the inconvenient side to smoking. We all know that your mind is always asking “Where will I have my next cigarette?” Or you think “I can't smoke here so I have to wait. But for how long? And where will I be able to smoke?” You are always in that “wait and see” mode to smoke
Next is the expense side of smoking. Cigarette costs and cigarette taxes just keep going up. When will it actually be too expensive for you to smoke?
Then there's the Health side of smoking cigarettes. This unfortunately becomes apparent to people when it's too late. I urge people, especially younger smokers, that a decision to stop smoking should be in their very near future!
When I started smoking as a teen, I really did you know about all these things that we know can happen to those who smoke. Lung cancer is just one of those possibilities.
If you are like many people that began smoking cigarettes a long time ago, you likely didn't really think about health risks because you feel fine when you begin. Smoking probably felt fine, somehow you were able to afford cigarettes, it was not too inconvenient, so you fit it into your life.
You made it work. Then at that some point, the nicotine took over, and that became your driving force. You just keep smoking.
That's when people start to develop things like lung cancer. If you can stop smoking before you're in a situation like that, and before you get to the point where your health is at risk, then you will spend the rest of your life being thankful for quitting.
It makes such a difference. Nobody wants to see anyone suffer from things like lung cancer. I think that's why the state takes the time to make commercials like that, and advertise it, because it's just a miserable way for a person to end up. No one wants that to be their potential demise.
If want to enjoy life, and live life to its fullest, then stop smoking. That should be your goal or at least one of them. I fully believe that if you stop smoking before you get sick, it will be a blessing. Consider today that if you're healthy, and I certainly hope you are, and if you're a smoker, you should take this seriously and consider stopping smoking now.
When I quit about 15 years ago, I wrote down everything that I did to prepare to stop smoking, I wrote down how I felt, and I wrote down what worked.
Now, 15 years later, as I get near retirement I've decided to put this all together as a program and make it available to help other people quit smoking. It will sell for less than the cost of one carton of cigarettes in many places around the country right now, so if you are interested and you'd like to learn a little bit more, click the link now.
You stand nothing to lose. I will tell you that I believe this program works. I literally bet my life on it!
I look forward to seeing you as a non-smoker!
