Fear: Why Most Smokers Are Afraid To Be An Ex Smoker

stopping my potential and that was “Drug Monster”. Being a nicotine addict and doing sports will not make you happy in the long run.

Now, as an ex-smoker this has changed unbelievably in ways that I can’t express. The only thing that I can say is that as a 42-year-old man, I have more energy and strength as I did in my early thirties since I stopped smoking. The sport I do now is “Muay Thai” it is the national sport of Thailand, which is a martial art that combines boxing with strikes from all parts of the body. I don’t intend to go out and bust someone’s nose but I do it for the physical demand it puts on me. If you check out this sport for information you will notice that a smoker would not be able to cope with the training required to do this sport. It’s tough, it’s hard and it hurts sometimes but you know something, I enjoy it so much because of two things.

The first thing is that it tests my levels of fitness and also increases it every week. This is great and I am happy that my fitness levels are improving constantly. I can kiss this goodbye if I was still smoking. No limits to my fitness are laid down by smoking and drug addiction. I am the one who controls my limits and my capacities. Complete control of your life is fantastic. Please believe me. And you can only experience this beautiful feeling when you are a non-smoker.

The second is all the new friends I have made at the club. I have become happier in my life because I am surrounded by a great bunch of guys and girls. (who are non-smokers by the way too) I don’t feel lonely during the week. I don’t feel bored during the week because I have something to look forward to three times a week at the gym, and it’s great when we get together to meet for dinner or bowling. It is so good to have this in my life now. I am not saying that as a smoker you won’t or don’t have friends. All I am saying is that any new activities or hobbies that you start can be fully enjoyed and they can bring new friends into your life by making it happier and more fulfilling in everyway. If you Smoke 40 cigarettes a day, you are not going to go out and meet people in other great , smoke free places. Maybe at the moment you only go to bars and clubs. But as an ex-smoker you can broaden your horizons, eliminate boredom, join clubs, and most importantly, be happy and meet new friends. Also, because I have chosen to help other people become an ex-smoker like I am, I am interacting with hundreds of people from around the world who seek my help and are making my life worthwhile again. It is wonderful! Nicotine addiction cannot help do this or anything like this because it is always on top of your priorities in life. And it only impedes your confidence, and the true qualities that you should be expressing everyday of your life. Stop being controlled by nicotine.

Just remember to get out there and meet new people. Join clubs. Go learn belly dancing or swimming. Go do anything that requires some sort of physically activity and where you can’t smoke and you will love it because it’s new, it’s healthy, you will make friends and most of all you will be a completely different and happier human being! I promise.
