      Introduction

      We’re Creatures of Habit

      «Form good habits… be a good person» is the universal motherly advice every one of us can recall when we scratch the realm of our memories. Tiny tots and youngsters are forever bound, protected and guided by their seniors and elderly in order to help them on to tread the path laid on time tested principles of honesty and good behavior. Yet sometimes unknowingly they take the forbidden route just to prove things for the heck of it.

      Due to the extreme stress, strain and stretch of the competitive world around any person today is more susceptible to succumb to pressure and buckle under it. Here’s where the need for addiction in any form arises which however provides only temporary solace rather than erasing the real cause. We sometimes latch on to it and slowly get further and further suck into its false whirlpool leading us to lose our will power.

      An addiction simply adheres itself to our self-belief eroding it gradually by digging into it. We just remain a shade of our previous selves hereby taking a short cut to a track that leads us to more acute physical and mental problems. Any addiction can be overcome, any bad patch overridden if only we could endure it by facing it head-on keeping the following lines from Kipling in mind —

      If you can fill the unforgiving minute

      With sixty seconds worth of distance run

      Yours is the earth and everything that’s in it

      And – which is more – you’ll be a MAN!

      Quit Smoking

      The Ugly Truth

      Tobacco usage causes more than 430,000 adult deaths per year in the United States.

      Around 5 million under 18 years will die prematurely from smoking-related diseases.

      More than 4,000 chemicals have been identified in tobacco smoke of which at least 43 cause cancer in humans and animals

      Exposure to passive smoking, 3,000 nonsmokers die of lung cancer every year.

      150,000 to 300,000 infants and children less than 18 months experience lower respiratory tract infections. Asthma and other respiratory conditions often are triggered or worsened by tobacco smoke.

      Smoking among 8th, 10th, and 12th graders varies between 18% to 40% (including 9% to 13% females)

      Tobacco use is linked with numerous adverse health outcomes, disability, and death across a spectrum, including heart disease, cancer, and chronic lung disease.

      Quit Smoking

      Is it Worth Smoking?

      10 Reasons for Picking the Habit Up

      A sudden rise of energy level to combat stress, stretch and strain of our daily schedule

      A concentration pill

      To overcome frustration due to the indomitable desire of achieving the very best even beyond our limits

      To bridge the gap between our desired aspirations and hard core reality

      Already Addicted and finds no valid reason to quit

      A style in the society

      The additional
