What Is Second Hand Smoke?

The funny thing about second hand smoke is that most smokers don’t even know that something like second hand smoke exists. It is also referred to as passive smoking.

Second hand smoke occurs when people surrounding a smoker breathe in the toxic smoke from a cigarette - just by being in close proximity. The sad thing about this is that second hand smokeis just as harmful as smoking the cigarette itself. So, the next time you smoke in the company of other people, you have to be well aware of the fact that you are not just putting yourself in danger but the same amount of danger is being passed on to your loved ones as well; a very strange gift indeed to pass on to your loved ones.

So if not for yourself, at least for your loved ones - you ought to try and give up the habit.

A Little Paperwork

The next thing you have to do is to set a date when you want to quit smoking and write it down on a sheet of paper. But as I mentioned previously, it should not be a date too far into the future. Tomorrow is as good a bet as any other day. And may I ask you, why not today itself?

There is still a little more paperwork to be done. It's a great idea to write down any other occasions when you had tried to quit smoking earlier but did not succeed. Try and find out the reasons while you failed and write them down as well. These reasons are what we call pitfalls and it would be best to be extremely wary of these pitfalls and steer clear of them.

That’s enough paperwork for the day. Do not throw away this sheet of paper. Try and keep it where you can see it always. Try pinning it in your work station or even on your bathroom wall.
