Why are You Quitting Smoking?

The most obvious reason to quit smoking is probably for health reasons but for me it was hard to fully comprehend the damage it was doing to my insides.  Our of site out of mind type of thing I guess and even though I felt the negative effects of smoking it was not my greatest motivator.

When quitting smoking it is important to know why you want to quit by making a list of specific reasons and even if doing it for yourself is not at the top of the list you should still write it down because eventually it may end up being #1 when you begin to experience the benefits and improve the quality of your life.

My Greatest Motivator to Quit Smoking

	This kid likes to run and when I can't even keep up with her walking because I can't breath well, it really made me look at my smoking addiction.
If she was going to be a lizard rider I figured I better get into training myself.  I enjoy doing things with my daughter and smoking was not one of them.
	The years that I was losing on my life because of smoking became unacceptable one day when I looked into these baby blue eyes.  I wanted to be around as long as possible to enjoy this wonderful blessing I have been given.
