I'm at a point in my life where many of my peers will say that they intend to quit someday, but just not yet. Besides the most obvious reasons for giving up nicotine and tobacco, here are some of the short-term benefits I've found since my hiatus.
- Exercising self-control
- better lung capacity
- getting rid of the smell that sticks to your clothes
- no nic-shits
- less nausea
- better appetite
- far less frequent cravings
In short, you don't have to give up going outdoors to chat with your smoking friends, but you can find autonomy in choosing your battles wisely—Or not, its really up to you.
