Smoking Myths!

The truth is you are a nicotine addict. 

You need your little dose. 

And you smoke cigarettes to get your little dose of nicotine.

Fortunately, and this is the good news, despite popular misconception, nicotine IS an easy drug to kick as the physical withdrawal symptoms are so mild.

HOW MANY SMOKERS REALLY KNOW THIS ?

Let me repeat it and I intend to repeat it again and again, without any apologies, throughout this course:

One of the great myths of smoking is that you will suffer terrible physical withdrawal symptoms when you quit.

KEY IDEA

The physical craving for nicotine is so mild you will hardly it.

In fact, giving up smoking is 90% mental and only 10% physical.

And what is that 10% - merely an empty, restless physical incomplete feeling....the temporary feeling in your body that something is missing. 

That is all. 

That is all. 

That is all you will physically experience when you stop smoking.

In fact, the majority of smokers will not be aware of any physical withdrawal symptoms at all when they quit

May I ask you this ? 

If you had a light head cold, would you stop everything and wait in fear for the symptoms of a light head cold to emerge ?

Of course not. 

It would be an inconvenience, but you would ignore it and get on with your business - knowing that it would be gone in a few days. 

You would not make a big fuss out of it.

This is exactly the sort of attitude you must take when you finally stop smoking - because the actual physical discomfort you will experience will be less than that of a head cold.

Cool, clean TV hero? Where is he now?

This is such an important point. 

You do not realize, right now, how angry you will become when, as a non-smoker you see people and especially TV shows and films continue to perpetuate this old myth.
