"The truth about Smokers 'Pleasure Paradox' "
by Neil Stelling
people quitting. The myth of 'pleasure' is stronger than
the reality of physical nicotine dependency.
Ever heard a smoker say they can't wait for their children
or grandchildren to get started smoking ? Of course not !
They know it's harmful, and usually openly admit they'd
like to quit. They even agree with policies that restrict
smoking in public places !
They admit they found the taste awful at first. But
persevered so they could seek the pleasure they hoped to
emulate. Nature makes poisons foul-tasting for good reason
- a warning not to use that substance.
Smoking actually removes pleasures previously taken for
granted.
We've already covered taste. How about fitness ? How
about the ability to run more than a few yards without
gasping for breath ? How about your non-smoking friends
and family, who must breathe passive smoke, and find their
clothes foul smelling in the morning ?
So the biggest pleasure in quitting smoking actually comes
from regaining past pleasures ! Unless you're a lifelong
smoker, you've forgotten the simple pleasures lost.
But here's some good news. Those pleasures can come back.
When you quit, your senses eventually return to normal.
Once again, you can taste and enjoy food. Taste starts to
return after only a few days. Over time, your fitness will
improve. Your habits will change as your non-smoking
personality starts to emerge e.g. no cigarette between
meal courses.
The pleasure of non-smoking far outweighs any imaginary
pleasure from smoking. Regaining life's simple pleasures
is a worthwhile goal, and good reason to quit smoking right
now.
