Quit Smoking

You know smoking is not healthy, yet you smoke. It is easy to tell yourself to quit yet you never stop. Mark Twain even said, “To cease smoking is the easiest thing I ever did. I ought to know because I’ve done it a thousand times.”

Smoking is killing yourself slowly and willingly. “When you smoke cigarettes you’re likely to burn yourself to death; with chewing tobacco the worst thing you can do is drown a midget.” Fred Allen.

You save money when you quit smoking. “I have seen many a man turn his gold into smoke, but you are the first who has turned smoke into gold.” Elizabeth I, to Sir Walter Raleigh.

Why you smoke? E.R. Bulwer Lytton said, “A good cigar is as great a comfort to a man as a good cry to a woman.”

“A cigarette is the perfect type of a perfect pleasure. It is exquisite, and it leaves one unsatisfied.” Oscar Wilder.

“I kissed my first woman and smoked my first cigarette on the same day. I have never had time for tobacco since.” Rudyard Kipling.

Cut Costs With Laughter

Motivate Yourself To Laugh

“People who laugh actually live longer than those who don’t laugh. Few persons realize that health actually varies according to the amount of laughter.” James J. Walsh.

Laughing makes you feel good. Laughing is the best medicine to your heart and it is free. Laughing increases the blood flow in your arteries.

Professor Micheal Miller said, “Given the result of our study, it is conceivable that laughing may be important to maintain a healthy endothelium and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.”

“Up to 80 muscles are used during a hearty laugh, the blood pressure rises, the heart beats faster and blood oxygen levels increase.” Norwegian University Of Science.

“Be helpful. When you see a person without a smile, give him yours.” Zig Ziglar.

Laughter not only keeps the heart healthy but also boosts one’s immune functions and helps reduce stress.

“The kindest thing you can do for the people you care about is to become a happy, joyous person.” Brian Tracy.

Watch your diet, do exercise and add a good dose of laughter to live longer and happier.

“You grow up the day you have your first real laugh – at yourself.” Ethel Barrymore.
