Nail biting, nose picking, smoking, thumb sucking, and drinking are the common bad habits that we can’t easily quit. Smokers are having a hard time to quit smoking. Some of the reason of these are innate human defiance, a need for social acceptance, the inability to truly understand the nature of risk, the ability to rationalize unhealthy habits and the genetic predisposition to addiction. Maybe you’ve tried to control yourself but do you think your over it? Some things haven’t worked out as you hoped. Quitting can be the most difficult word for you and you know the reason why? Because quitting something is difficult when you always think about it, there’s no excitement in just saying no and you never simply quit something, you do something else instead. Your bad habit takes time, you can make space for something new and exciting.
Smoking and drinking are ranked as the more dangerous bad habit because it can kill you or you can kill somebody. How? E.g. too much drinking can lead to car accident or a fight with somebody else. I know it’s very tough to quit when you know that it’s part of your lifestyle. But its time to make a choice or you’ll die young. Which do you value more? Do you value more having a thousand of puff or having a pleasant life? Instead of smoking you can take a candy for a good substitute. You will be not only making an active choice to not do the old habit but you will also be making a choice to perform a better action. It’s up to you. You should realize how important is good health. You will be forced to make a choice, whether a bad or good, about continuing your habit. What choice do you want to make? The one that makes you bad or the one that makes you feel better and feel good? If you really want to change don’t complain, it takes time and eventually you’ll no longer realizing it but you’re totally over it.
