Why do we smoke?
Why do we smoke, when we all know that it is not good
for health? There are very many reasons to it but in this article we will
ponder over the biggest reason in todays times and that is to release
STRESS. What is stress, can we remove it through smoking, if not then how can
we remove it, lets talk a little in the light of these questions.
What is Stress? What is Stress? Stress is the situation when we
feel helpless, incapable to perform, not able to meet the deadlines and
pressurized. Stress could be due to any reason, be it work pressure,
differences at personal front, may be due to financial crisis, or it could be
due to anything. Can we remove it through smoking? Can we
remove it through smoking? Can we smoke away our blues in the air and relax?
Perhaps the answer is in the negative. If I have to submit a report to my boss
in an hour, which I know, is just impossible and I am thus nervous, will
smoking a complete cigarette down my lungs make me build a ginnee of that smoke
that will do some miracle for me. Perhaps that could have happened, but alas it
is not so. Then why am I smoking, if it is doing no good to me?
Then what to do? Then what should I do in a stressful
situation? The answer is confront it. Face the problem and find a solution to
it. As for in my case above I would have talked to my boss, for some more time
to prepare the report or if that could not have been possible to, provide me
with some helping hand. Thus in a nutshell it is only positive attitude and
logical thinking that helps you come out of a crisis situation. Thats why
it is rightly said that its your attitude and not your aptitude that
decides your altitude.
Dangers of smoking Smoking
not only does no good to us but it is bad for us, it thus does double harm to
us. Smoking increases the chances of death due to lungs and breast cancer by a
number of times. It wrecks the lungs during sports. Tobacco the
chemical contained in the cigar narrows the blood vessels and strains our
heart. The biggest harm of tobacco is that it makes a person addictive to its
use. So one should watch out, so as not to become addictive to its use in his
plight to get rid of his worries and frustration.
