Let me add, at this point, that it is not your fault that that you have unconsciously accepted all these false beliefs about smoking.

We are all victims of this universal myth - but one by one we must face it and expose it's nothingness.

This will not only be for our own personal benefit because everybody who succeeds in giving up smoking and finding the whole process easy makes it 100% easier for all the people who follow them.

	Remember, at one stage over 60% of the adult population were addicted to nicotine

In fact, in the fifties, people were told by doctors and the tobacco companies that cigarettes did not even pose a risk to health !!

Every puff on your cigarette delivers, via the lungs to the brain a small dose of nicotine that actually acts more rapidly than a dose of heroin an addict may inject into his veins.

Because nicotine is a quick-acting drug the levels in the bloodstream drop quickly to about half within a half an hour and a quarter within an hour of finishing a cigarette.

As soon as a smoker extinguishes a cigarette the nicotine rapidly begins to leave the bloodstream and the smoker begins to suffer withdrawal symptoms - that restless feeling that says "I want a cigarette".

He has another cigarette of course and within seven seconds, fresh nicotine is supplied and the craving ends ..........but soon starts again .....and again.........and again.............and the chain goes on and it is a chain for life UNLESS we break it.

So whenever you feel like a cigarette - and we all know the feeling - that senseless desire to smoke - realize that it is nothing but that 'little monster', nicotine - requesting it's hourly dose of poison.

Not some large, terrifying, all-powerful force that we must fear and obey at all costs.

It is just that 'little monster' trying to send a message to the brain - usually every hour - 'I need more poison. Nicotine now please."

The truth is simple. You are a nicotine addict. You smoke to supply your body with nicotine but this is not the end of the world. There is some good news. It is important to remember that although nicotine is one of the world's most powerful drugs because of the speed with which you get hooked, you are never badly hooked.

Because it is a quick-acting drug it takes only three weeks for 99% of all the traces of nicotine to leave your body and it's physical withdrawal symptoms are so mild as to be unnoticeable.

We all know the terrible reality of smoking but at least there is a way out of this misery. We thought we were chained for life to this terrible addiction and we were convinced we would have to suffer terrible withdrawal pangs to escape from it.

But now a new simple truth has emerged that people all over the world are discovering for themselves:

When you give up smoking there is no physical agony to battle against. All we will feel is a slight discomfort that will come in the form of a empty restless feeling which will fade away gradually after we stop.

"OK", you're probably saying, "I understand this whole problem of nicotine addiction and I can accept that I'll probably have no problem in dealing with any physical withdrawal symptoms I may have to face - in actual fact I'm looking forward to it - but I still have a nagging doubt. There much be more to it than that. If it is so easy to cope with the withdrawal symptoms, why then do some smokers still find it so difficult? Why do they go through months of torture and spend the whole of their lives pining for a cigarette?"
