Stop Smoking

MAYBE YOU CAN'T STOP SMOKING

Not everyone can stop smoking. Find out if you're one of these unfortunate few by taking my simple test. If it turns out that you can stop, I'll tell you a simple way to do it, and you can do it and get on with your life. If not, then at least you will know what's coming, and not be too surprised by some things that may pop up in your future.

CAN YOU QUIT SMOKING TEST

Preface: The test is only one, two part question. But in order to better understand the nature of the question, imagine the following. A storm has washed out a section of a giant bridge, leaving an abrupt end to pavement, some 500 feet in the air over a canyon floor of boulders and rocks. Night has come, there is fog, and you see a motorist speeding along the highway leading to the bridge. The damage is unreported, no signs or barricades have been set up, and the motorist is sure to drive over the edge to his death. This is not the smoking test, only a prep question. I ask you, can the motorist save his life? The correct answer to what is meant by the question is, no. Why not? Does he not have brakes? Doesn't he have a few miles before the bridge? Doesn't he know how to stop the car? The answer to all of these queries is, yes. But the reason he can't save his life by any of these powers he has, is that he does not have the knowledge that the bridge is out. With that knowledge he could do it. Without it , he can't. His situation is the same as not having brakes, or distance in which to stop, or the skill necessary for stopping.

Now to the Test: Do you know, for an absolute fact, that your life will be significantly different if you stop, from what it will be if you don't? Do you know for an absolute fact, that, as a smoker, a huge portion of your lifetime is going to be spent in the agony known as, "sickness", "severe physical discomfort", etc.; that your early waking hours are going to be spent coughing, and feeling unable to "get started" - while that same time will be spent in relative relaxed comfort, if you stop smoking now?

If your answer is a truthful, yes, then you can stop smoking, and you will. If your answer is, no, then you can't stop no matter how much you try. How do you do it? You simply concentrate on what you know. You concentrate on the fact that every hour, even every moment, that you stay stopped, brings you nearer to the summit of the hill, after which the task becomes more easy until at last you are among those who are not tormented by this awful scourge.

Concentrate; that lovely feeling has a dagger palmed in the hand by which it embraces you. Step back, don't be a fool. Your life is the stake in this deadly game!

Concentrate... Is your mind, is your will, paper? Or is it iron? You have one life, one chance. The chips are down. It's your defining hour. Some are winners, some losers. Today you show the world what you are.

FOOTNOTES: Withdrawal from nicotine is an extremely unpleasant experience that continues over a relatively long period of time. Unless a person has strong awareness of all benefits that come from being free of nicotine, he or she is not likely to remain fully cognizant of the fact that the discomfort is worth the reward. They are likely to capitulate at some point short of shedding the desire. But the grim fact remains; if withdrawal is unpleasant and long lasting, the deterioration of health will be even more unpleasant and longer lasting. Whereas withdrawal is a sickness that gets better with time, and ends in complete recovery; the sickness that comes from smoking gets worse with time, and ends in death. You never shed it. That's why we say you really have to KNOW the facts, and be strong enough in your convictions to see it through to the end. It takes a strong, logical mind. Otherwise, your physical body will talk you right out of your logical perspective.
