			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="zemanta-img" style="margin: 1em; float: right; display: block;"><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Brain.png"><img style="border: medium none; display: block;" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3f/Brain.png/202px-Brain.png" alt="Rendering of human brain." /></a><span class="zemanta-img-attribution">Image via <a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Brain.png">Wikipedia</a></span></div>
<p>Sometimes, when all our doubts, fears and insecurities wrap ourselves up, we always come up with the idea of “<span style="color: #ff0000;">I wish I was somebody else</span>.”  More often than not, we think and believe that someone or rather, most people are better than us.- when <span style="color: #339966;">in reality, the fact is, most people are more scared than us</span>.</p>
<p><strong>The Truth</strong></p>
<p>You spot a totally eye-catching girl sitting by herself at a party, casually sipping on a glass of Asti Spumanti. You think to yourself, “she looks so perfectly calm and confident.” But if you could read thru her transparent mind, you would see a bunch of clouds of thoughts and you might just be amazed that she’s thinking “are people talking about why I am seated here alone?&#8230; Why don’t guys find me attractive? …I don’t like my ankles, they look too skinny… I wish I was as intelligent as my best friend.”</p>
<p>We look at a young business entrepreneur and say “Wooh… what else could he ask for?” He stares at himself at the mirror and murmur to himself, “I hate my big eyes… I wonder why my friends won’t talk to me… I hope mom and dad would still work things out.”</p>
<p>Isn’t it funny? We look at other people, envy them for looking so outrageously perfect and wish we could trade places with them, while they look at us and thinks of the same thing. We are insecure of other people who themselves are insecure of us. We suffer from low self-esteem, lack of self-confidence and lose hope in self improvement because we are enveloped in quiet desperation.</p>
<p>Sometimes, you notice that you have an irritating habit like biting off your finger nails, having a foul mouth, and you – of all people, is the last to know.</p>
<p>I have a friend who never gets tired of talking. And in most conversations, she is the only one who seems to be interested in the things she has to say. So all of our other friends tend to avoid the circles whenever she’s  around, and she doesn’t notices how badly she became socially handicapped – gradually affecting the people in her environment.</p>
<p><strong>The Keys</strong></p>
<p>One key to self improvement is to <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>LISTEN</strong></span> and <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>TALK</strong></span> to a trusted friend. Find someone who you find comfort in opening up with even the most gentle topics you want to discuss. <span style="color: #339966;">Ask questions like “do you think I am ill-mannered?”,  “Do I always sound so argumentative?”,  “Do I talk too loud?”,  “Does my breath smell?”,  “Do I ever bore you when were together?”</span>.  In this way, the other person will obviously know that you are interested in the process of self improvement. Lend her your ears for comments and criticisms and <span style="color: #0000ff;">don’t give her answers like “Don’t exaggerate! That’s just the way I am!”</span> Open up your mind and heart as well. And in return, you may want to help your friend with constructive criticism that will also help her improve her self.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Love Yourself</strong></span></p>
<p>One of Whitney Houston’s songs says <span style="color: #339966;"><strong>“Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all”</strong></span>. True enough. In order to love others, you must love yourself too. Remember, you cannot give what you do not have.</p>
<p>Before telling other people some ways on how to improve themselves, let them see that you yourself is a representation and a product of self improvement. Self improvement makes us better people, we then inspire other people, and then the rest of the world will follow.</p>
<p>Stop thinking of yourselves as second-rate beings. Forget the repetitive thought of “If only I was richer… if only I was thinner” and so on.  Accepting your true self is the first step to self improvement. We need to <span style="color: #ff0000;">stop comparing ourselves to others</span> only to find out at the end that we’ve got  10 more reasons to envy them.</p>
<p><strong>Nobody Perfect</strong></p>
<p>We all have our insecurities. Nobody is perfect. We always wish we had better things, better features, better body parts, etc. But life need not to be perfect for people to be happy about themselves. <strong>Self improvement</strong> and loving yourself is not a matter of shouting to the whole world that you are perfect and you are the best. It’s the virtue of acceptance and contentment. When we begin to improve ourselves, we then begin to feel contented and happy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is plenty of relevant <strong>anger management</strong> information. First and foremost it is imperative to understand anger and the consequences of anger. Anger management will not work without knowing what it is an individual is attempting to change or manage. Anger is totally normal. It is a reaction to various situations. It is okay to be angry but when this anger becomes intense, frequently, there can be major problems;</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #ff0000;">problems within the family</span></li>
<li>relationships</li>
<li>work</li>
<li>it can <span style="color: #ff0000;">cause health problems</span></li>
</ul>
<p>People who unable to manage their anger in a positive way are likely to <span style="color: #339966;">transfer their anger to other situations such as child and spousal abuse, violent crimes and other types of recklessness</span>. This anger management information is something an individual should consider when recognizing they have a problem.</p>
<p><strong>Sorts Of Anger</strong></p>
<p>There are all sorts of anger-provoking situations, more anger management information that might be useful in working through anger-related issues. Some people become mad or angry when they are frustrated, when something doesn&#8217;t work out the way they planned or they failed to succeed after giving their all, circumstances like these may cause a person to become frustrated. This frustration may lead to anger which can then spin off into a whole list of negative consequences.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Irritations provoke anger</span>. Daily incidents such as constant reminders or regular interruptions can cause a person to become irritated. This <span style="color: #ff0000;">irritation continues to grow and the result is a sudden fit of rage</span>. Depending on the individual this rage can cause a person to resort to different ways of releasing their anger, some of which may be painful to themselves and others.</p>
<p>When an individual is being verbally abused, perhaps sexually abused, these situations provoke anger. People deal with these disturbing experiences differently but for those who become angry because of the abuse, the outcome could be very serious, even violent. Anger management information such as this is imperative, especially in a situation where a person feels threatened.</p>
<p><em>Being treated unfairly often provokes feelings of anger. Often people are blamed for things, whether warranted or not, it can cause them to feel angry and act out because of these feelings. </em></p>
<p><strong>Important Information</strong></p>
<p>There is so much information important to understanding anger management. The more details a person can gather, the better equipped they are when faced with circumstances involving an angry individual or if needing to tap into the information themselves. Anger management information is available through many sources; books, movies, as well as the Internet. For a person who requires anger management information, the Internet is an excellent source. With many websites dedicated to anger management, it is very proficient in supplying the necessary information required concerning anger, consequences of anger, people affected by anger and anger management information.</p>
<p>Without the appropriate anger management information, it would be difficult to begin a course of treatment that would be beneficial. It doesn&#8217;t matter where the anger management information comes from. It does matter however, what an individual does with the information they are given. Reading and studying the information is essential but deciding what to do with this information will make the difference in resolving anger-related issues or not.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>What is Anger Management?</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style="color: #339966;">Controlling anger is considered anger management</span>. The first step to controlling anger issues it to admit there is a problem. Some people have major anger issues but cannot see it. Naturally something happens to set a person off making them angry. Individuals, who have trouble admitting to their anger and accepting responsibility for their actions, often play the blame game. They have difficulty seeing the situation as being their fault. There&#8217;s always something or someone to blame. Their fits of anger are always blamed on something else. These people could really use a few lessons in anger management. However they need to accept their actions and reactions for what they are, anger.</p>
<p>Many people who have anger issues find it demeaning when anger management is suggested. Unable to accept their problem prevents them from seeking the help they require. If a person continues down a path where they are constantly angry and acting out, it will eventually cause major problems. <span style="color: #339966;">Without anger management this individual will likely experience loss, loss of their family, loss of their job and loss of their own identity. </span></p>
<p><strong>Anger is Problems</strong></p>
<p>It is essential to convince the person with anger problems, anger management is not meant to be a punishment but rather to help them have a better quality of life. Anger management is designed to help the individual work out their problems, help them figure out why they become so angry. It also teaches the person not to be enslaved by their emotions, their anger. Anger management is meant to teach the person techniques which prevent them from getting angry as often or for very long.</p>
<p>There are all sorts of anger management strategies. There are programs created specifically to help those with anger issues. These programs are broken down to address different;</p>
<ul>
<li> people</li>
<li>kids</li>
<li>teens</li>
<li>adults</li>
<li>couples</li>
<li>families</li>
</ul>
<p>These anger management programs are in place to teach or help people to work on their anger. Teaching people strategies for working out their problems and controlling their anger are important in anger management.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Anger</strong></span> may be a healthy, normal emotion but when the anger takes over an individual&#8217;s life making them destructive and violent, it&#8217;s a big problem. Not only does the anger destroy the individual but it also impacts everyone and everything around them. <strong>Anger management</strong> could change this individual and ensure a healthy, normal life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="zemanta-img" style="margin: 1em; float: right; display: block;"><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Citizen-Einstein.jpg"><img style="border: medium none; display: block;" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8a/Citizen-Einstein.jpg/202px-Citizen-Einstein.jpg" alt="{{w|Albert Einstein}} receiving from Judge {{w..." /></a><span class="zemanta-img-attribution">Image via <a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Citizen-Einstein.jpg">Wikipedia</a></span></div>
<p>People seem to have the misconception that only a select few are able to unleash a steady flow of <strong>creative genius</strong>. That is not true at all. The fact is, creativity is very much like a muscle that needs to be exercised in order to consistently give out great results. If you don&#8217;t practice harnessing <strong>creative thinking</strong>, this skill will very much atrophy into inexistence. But keep working and this skill will soon come to you in a snap.</p>
<p>So how do you unleash your creative thinking? Well, the first thing is to become a human leech. No, we&#8217;re not talking about just sucking the blood out of every living being available, we&#8217;re saying that you should take in as much knowledge and learning you can find. Read everything available &#8212; good and bad, and keep your mind open to the infinite possibilities of the universe. The more you know, the more you&#8217;ll want to know, and the more your faculty of wonder will be exercised. Prepare to be amazed at little facts that add a bit of color into your life.</p>
<p>Focus on a creative activity everyday. Yes, it&#8217;s an effort. Even doodling is a creative activity. Don&#8217;t let anything hinder you. Mindlessness may be a creative activity, but for people who are just starting out to unleash a little bit of creative thinking in their lives, it is helpful and encouraging to have concrete evidence, that, &#8220;hey, what I&#8217;m doing is getting somewhere.&#8221; So why don&#8217;t you try it. Practice drawing for a couple of minutes each day. Bring out your old camera and start snapping photos like crazy. Keep a journal and make a point to write in it religiously. Another cool idea is to write by describing something with your five senses. Try to avoid vague adjectives like &#8220;marvelous,&#8221; &#8220;amazing,&#8221; and &#8220;delicious.&#8221; Before you know it, you&#8217;ll have built yourself a tiny portfolio, and you&#8217;ll be amazed at the growth you&#8217;ve undertaken after amassing all those works of art. Who knows, you might actually take to liking those things you do everyday. Pretty soon those things will become a part of you and you&#8217;ll be addicted to these creative exercises.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Think out of the box</strong></span> &#8212; or don&#8217;t. Sometimes, constraints are actually a good thing. Limitations discipline you to work within your means. It enables you to be more resourceful. Creative freedom is great, but limitations enforce discipline.</p>
<p>Try something new everyday and let your experiences broaden your perspective. Explore a new district in your neighborhood. Spend an afternoon in a museum to which you&#8217;ve never been before. Chat up someone on the bus. Open up to the people around you. As you thrust yourself out of your comfort zone more and more each day, your sense of adventure grows and so does your zest for life. Think about it. When was the last time you did something for the first time? If it&#8217;s been a while, I tell you, you&#8217;ve been missing out on a whole lot of experiences that could&#8217;ve added to your growth, emotionally, mentally, physically, or spiritually. Why don&#8217;t you try bungee jumping today? Not only will you learn, but you will also have plenty of stories to share, enabling you to practice your storytelling skills and making you the life of the party.</p>
<p>Embrace insanity. No, not to the point of practically admitting yourself into the mental ward. As John Russell once said, &#8220;Sanity calms, but madness is more interesting.&#8221; Exactly! Every creative thought was once deemed insanity by other &#8220;normal&#8221; people at one time or another. Luckily, that didn&#8217;t stop the creative geniuses from standing by them. The thing is, sanity or being normal confines people to think&#8230; well, normally. Withink limits. Creativity is essentially breaking through barriers. Yes, this includes the bizzarre and the downright strange. I&#8217;m not saying that you yourself should develop a creative personality. That might go haywire. An example of a creative personality would be <a class="zem_slink" title="George Washington" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Washington">George Washington</a>, who often rode into battle naked, or <a class="zem_slink" title="James Joyce" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Joyce">James Joyce</a>, who wrote &#8220;Dubliners&#8221; with beetle juice for an intense fear of ink, or <a class="zem_slink" title="Albert Einstein" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Einstein">Albert Einstein</a>, who thought his cat was a spy sent by his rival (or in thinking creatively in this case, the term could probably be &#8220;archnemesis.&#8221;) It&#8217;s important that your creativity doesn&#8217;t get you detached from the real world completely.</p>
<p>I hope this article has inspired you to start <strong>thinking</strong> beyond your &#8220;limits.&#8221; If you follow these steps pretty soon you&#8217;ll be living a life full of interesting adventures. Unleashing your <strong>creative thinking</strong> will bring about a new zest for living life.</p>

<p>Depression or prolonged sadness is actually quite common in the United States, around 9.5 percent of the American population actually suffer from this illness, however, not all of them get to be treated, thus, depression and its ill-effects continue to be a burden to some individuals. This illness may seem quite simple to treat but in reality, it takes more than a little cheering up to actually cure depression. Constant visits to a cognitive behavior therapist is a must as well as taking all the prescribed medicines that the doctor will ask the patient to take – none of these exactly come cheap, but the amount of suffering that a person is going through because of depression is enough reason already for others to start taking notice and face depression head on.</p>
<p>Depression oftentimes can easily get in the way of an individual’s daily activities and his or her’s normal functions, one’s zest for life can quickly and easily dissipate due to depression. And in place of an individual’s sunny disposition is more or less a person who hates his or herself, having no self-confidence, trying to isolate one’s self from the world and basically just not caring about living any more. More so, a person suffering from depression isn’t the only one who’s going to suffer from this destructive illness, his or her loved ones are sure to follow suit. By seeing the individual grow through such rough patches, basically not caring about anything or anyone anymore, it’s highly likely that not only will depression one’s relationship with one’s self but with his or her loved ones too.</p>
<p>Fortunately depression can now be cured, especially when diagnosed early, depressed individuals can actually be treated through therapy and medication, although it may be a bit costly, a person’s good mental health is something that shouldn’t be scrimped on. Cognitive behavioral talk or interpersonal talk are just some of the available psychosocial treatments that cognitive behavior therapists can offer to their patients, both actually prove to be able to produce fruitful and positive results.</p>
<p>Still, people tend to not recognize depression even it’s right before their eyes, being honest with one’s self is key to being able to cure such an illness. Never overlook the various symptoms, depressed individuals oftentimes exhibit uncharacteristic behaviors such as suddenly lacking interest in one’s hobbies (or other stuff that he or she usually enjoys), sleeps too much or actually aren’t able to get some shut-eye, suddenly becoming anti-social, talks a lot about death or being a worthless person. There are actually a lot more other symptoms but in case these already fit in your category or of someone that you know of, go to a reputable psychiatrist at once in order to see if the depression is still at an early stage or not. From here you’ll be able to assess how the treatments will actually go.</p>
<p>Depression shouldn’t be something that people fear of, instead, people should just start taking charge of their lives and actually face this illness and fight it. Life is too beautiful a gift to waste and if one will spend the majority of his or her life just moping around about every single little thing then what kind of life would that be? Depression may not kill one’s body but it’ll certainly kills one’s spirit if you’ll let it. Don’t be a victim.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Although most men would love nothing more than to have a larger penis, few would actually admit it. There are surgical methods of penis enlargement but few men actually want to go through such a drastic measure just to have a larger penis. Wouldn&#8217;t it be great for these men if they could enlarge their penis naturally? The good news is there are several effective, natural methods of enlarging the penis. With a larger penis, you&#8217;ll bring more self-confidence into the bedroom, which will show in your performance and stamina! Here are some methods for natural penis enlargement.</p>
<p><strong>Well-Groomed Pubic Area</strong></p>
<p>You may find this slightly strange but when your pubic hair is trimmed or shaved, your penis is naturally going to &#8220;stand out in the crowd&#8221;. While being well groomed down below will not actually make your penis larger, it&#8217;s a natural and very easy way to make it look much bigger. When it&#8217;s the first thing she sees, it&#8217;s going to stand out!</p>
<p><strong>Penis Weights</strong></p>
<p>For years, having a larger penis has been uppermost on men&#8217;s mind. They feel with a larger penis, they&#8217;ll satisfy her better in bed. Many men have tried using penis weights. Weights are used to stretch out the penis, which will add to the length. These weights are also known as penis-hanging tools in some stores. While they may work in time – it will take time and some discomfort. While the result may be more permanent than shaving, it&#8217;s going to take some time.</p>
<p><strong>Penis Patches</strong></p>
<p>Penis patches are one of the new technologies in the &#8220;enlarge your penis industry&#8221;. They work in much the same way as the stop smoking patch or the male enhancement pills. Some aren&#8217;t sure whether these penis patches really work or are just a gimmick. You put on the patch and with the use of transdermal technology, nutrients are pushed into our penis through your blood stream. While it may enlarge your penis, it may take awhile and do you really know what you&#8217;re putting into your bloodstreams?</p>
<p><strong>Penis Pumps</strong></p>
<p>Penis pumps, like penis weights, have been around forever. For some they&#8217;ll work and for others not so good. Many people that have tried these pumps claim they do work after a while and others claim they only made their penis appear to be bigger. If all you want is a feeling of self-confidence, these may work for you. However, there are products like MaleExtra that will not only make your penis appear larger but actually increase the size and girth and do it naturally as well.</p>
<h2><a title="Male Extra" href="http://track.moreniche.com/hit.php?w=108885&amp;s=160" target="_blank"><strong>MaleExtra</strong></a></h2>
<p><a title="Male Extra" href="http://track.moreniche.com/hit.php?w=108885&amp;s=160" target="_blank">MaleExtra</a> offers pills that contain products like pomegranate that are good for you. Pomegranate has many excellent antioxidant and healthful benefits. MaleExtra will also let you know the ingredients in their product. These pills are effective and they work quickly. However, what make MaleExtra so good is that it&#8217;s not just a pack of pills with healthy nutrients. They also provide you with instructional and educational DVDs and simple exercises that take only 8 minutes per day but will provide fast results, not weeks and months of waiting.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Stop Smoking" href="http://www.smokedeter.com/?aid=410528" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-128" title="stop-smoking" src="http://menscure.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/stop-smoking.gif" alt="" width="300" height="250" /></a>All smokers are aware that <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">smoking is injurious to health</span></strong>. Yet, many continue to smoke even when they know that this habit actually kills. Is that not enough a reason to <strong>quit smoking</strong>? Of course, there are many, many other reasons – but this one is the most critical, i.e. your life. Smoking is such an irony – you pay money to buy yourself a slow and extremely painful (not to mention expensive) death.</p>
<p><strong>Some Tips How To Quit Smoking – </strong></p>
<h1>1. Publicise your decision to quit smoking</h1>
<p>Let your friends and family know your decision to quit smoking. Get practical support, delegating to a person close to you the difficult task of reminding you of your target and benefits in your health whenever you feel a strong desire for a cigarette. Also, very important, ask from friends and family not to smoke in front of you and not to leave cigarettes around you.</p>
<h1>2. Set a target date</h1>
<p>Set a target date over a period of 2-3 weeks from the time you have taken the decision, which you will begin, the effort to quit smoking. Make sure that this period does not coincide with difficulties and stressful conditions as in this case will be easier for you to be carried away. Try to gradually reduce the quantity of cigarettes you smoke in the coming weeks until the target date.</p>
<h1>3. Create a schedule</h1>
<p>Set a specific timetable, which will not be very tight or too short in duration. Allow for possible &#8220;errors&#8221;, estimate the likelihood of serious desire for smoking and do not be disappointed if you do not accomplish it in the first three days. Keep trying. Few are those who succeed with their first try.</p>
<h1>4. Start Easy</h1>
<p>Record under what conditions you more often smoke (boredom, anxiety, companionship, loneliness, television, cards, coffee, etc.)</p>
<p>Rate your desire from 0 to 5, with “mechanical smoking” to the “absolutely necessary”.</p>
<p>Locate phases during which you smoke mechanically, without particularly want to, and make an effort to begin to gradually quit smoking into those relatively indifferent phases. This way you will make a good start and also increase your confidence to continue till you mange to quit smoking completely.</p>
<h1>5. Avoid your smoking habits and drinks</h1>
<p>Avoid the top reasons causing your desire for smoking such as coffee, alcohol, night outs, arguing etc. Try to consume a lot dairy products, fruits and vegetables, as the taste has been shown in surveys that reduce both the desire to smoke and also it affects in a negative way the taste of a cigarette if you cannot fight the temptation.</p>
<p>Also avoid habits that in you mind are combined with smoking such as television, reading magazines or surfing the internet.</p>
<h1>6. Keep you self busy</h1>
<p>Especially in the early days try to keep your self busy with things you like, try not to leave time to yourself to think how much would you like to smoke. Also, try to divert your irritation in intense activity, for example by making some sports, walking or cycling.</p>
<h1>7. Sleep more</h1>
<p>Try to sleep more than you usually do. Your body and spirit becomes more exhausted from the effort to stop smoking and needs more rest. Moreover, the hours you sleep are hours that you are not thinking about how you would like a cigarette.</p>
<h1>8. Drink more water</h1>
<p>Try to drink more water. Water helps in eliminating toxins that have accumulated in your body from smoking more quickly, while reducing your desire to smoke.</p>
<h1>9. Visit no-smoking places</h1>
<p>Try to spend as many hours of the day in places where smoking is not allowed, such as libraries and museums. If you take a break for coffee sit with your friends in the non-smoking section.</p>
<h1>10. Keep your hands busy</h1>
<p>Keep your hands busy. It is proven that one of the reasons that people keep smoking is because they have associated smoking with a habit they do with their hands. Keep in your hand everything else than a cigarette; hold a pen, a piece of paper, anything that can trick your self, which is used to make the mechanical movements of smoking.</p>
<h1>11. Avoid the smoking &#8216;after food temptation&#8217;</h1>
<p>Most people tend to smoke immediately after food. Stand up immediately from the table you just eat go brush your teeth or go for a walk, try not to get into the temptation of smoking.</p>
<h1>12. Don&#8217;t fall into the &#8220;one cigarette trap&#8221;</h1>
<p>Try to resist the temptation to “one” cigarette. It is for sure that once you smoke one cigarette you will ruin your attempts to quit smoking, as other cigarettes will follow.</p>
<p>Even if you do fall in the trap, do not be very strict yourself. Try not to make the same mistake again and always have in your mind that this was a temporary misstep in your attempt to quit smoking for good.</p>
<h1>13. Try using nicotine substitutes</h1>
<p>If you feel that your lack of nicotine creates irritation, or if in the first few days you did not managed to stop smoking, despite your efforts, try using nicotine substitutes, such as stickers or chewing nicotine gum. This will help you to get rid of the habit of looking for cigarettes and will eventually help you to quit smoking.</p>
<h1>14. Try acupuncture</h1>
<p>Acupuncture is a natural method of nicotine dependency treatment, painless and safe. With one to five visits it reduces the intensity of symptoms such as psychological pressure, anxiety, depression, tension and the feelings of emptiness caused by the use of a long-term drug like nicotine. Surveys also have shown that acupuncture increases the need for affirmative action, creates vitality and fertility and helps the mind to think clearly and to check its desires.</p>
<h1>15. Reward you self for you hard efforts</h1>
<p>Reward yourself for each day without a cigarette. A good idea in this direction is to use the money savings from not smoking to buy something or make a trip.</p>
<h1>16. Watch you diet</h1>
<p>Consider consulting a dietician and follow a nutrition program for the first few months since the majority of smokers gain some extra pounds because they tend to eat more as a replacement action for not smoking.</p>
<h1>17. Think positive</h1>
<p>Do not you think quitting smoking as a sacrifice in which you lose a pleasure for the general and vague &#8220;good health&#8221;, but as a short exchange of joy with others, much bigger.</p>
<h1>18. Accept your weakness</h1>
<p>Reconcile with your weaknesses and do not to dispose yourself because you feel dependent on tobacco. If smoking had nothing positive, no one would smoke. The issue is to gradually be able to put on the scale the negatives of smoking and to let the scale turn in favour of quitting smoking.</p>
<h1>19. Smoke consciously</h1>
<p>Smoke consciously, that is, as any other activity you do, when you smoke say: &#8220;now I will smoke a cigarette.&#8221; In this way it will help you slowly disconnect the cigarette from other parallel activities, such as driving, surfing the net or speaking on the telephone. Conscious smoking in the long run helps address the issues with &#8220;mechanical smoking.&#8221;</p>
<h1>20. Quit Smoking &#8211; Starting from now</h1>
<p>You&#8217;ve read the ways to <strong>quit smoking</strong> and you also have the will to do it, why not start your efforts from now. Set your target date and follow the steps above. Quitting smoking can only do good for you and your health. <span style="color: #ff0000;">It’s you choice&#8230;</span></p>
