The problem of smoking is of paramount importance in modern society, thanks not only to its medical aspect, but also, first of all, ethical. After all, one must honestly admit that the “western” format for resolving this issue to date has not brought the expected result.
Perhaps, in what our country is definitely lagging behind Western democracy, it is in a healthy lifestyle. It would seem that the “eternal values” associated with spiritual development there are irretrievably lost, since the “consumer society” has its roots precisely from there, but with the so-called bad habits, the “golden billion” figured out quickly and concisely.
And what is the point they themselves poorly understood. After all, all these endless "works" about the dangers of smoking, for example, and powerful ideological propaganda that actively exploits the image of a successful business man, would remain in the category of "bubbles in the water" if not
And so, everything in order. Any smoker with experience clearly understands that the moral (smoking is immoral!), Economic (smoking is expensive!) And medical (smoking is hazardous to health!) Aspects, which are traditionally referred to by all kinds of mass media, which present the world with "global conclusions" and "imperishable works" all kinds of "geniuses" are exclusively commercial in nature. That is, the state cares about taxpayers and demographics, business about excess profits, and society observes and "draws conclusions" about the futility of the intentions of both sides of the action.
And what about the carrier of the bad habit ?! Why do some people give up their whole lives, others don’t even try, and only still others — resolutely leave this activity once and for all ?! The answer is both simple and difficult!
Apply the ONS principle (die, but do it!). Since campaigning to quit smoking is actually no longer necessary at all, because the benefits are obvious, the whole thing is only motivation. A person with attachment to smoking should be clearly aware that nicotine addiction is identical to heroin. And this means one thing - you can quit smoking only in the only case! And this case is this: either quit smoking - or you die! At half strength this can never be achieved.
It turns out that if a problem person has not achieved motivation, worth it in life itself, then it’s not worth undertaking a “military feat”. After all, there is nothing worse for health (physiology and psyche) than these endless rushing back and forth.
But why was the notorious West able to so effectively throw off its shackles of dependence on smoking ?! The answer again is simple: society unknowingly came across a "pain point" - pride! And flawlessly played this trump card, insisting on fashion movements. If a person smokes, then he is a loser and behind the times, and otherwise - he is in a trend and claims to be successful.
Well, and since the Russian mentality is still not as self-serving as that of Western colleagues, the model itself, taken as a mold from their society, cannot work with the same efficiency as there. A generation of middle-aged and older people, and especially in a remote province, is not able to realize by their own example the national idea of a healthy lifestyle due to the fact that it is simply invulnerable to propaganda (the double standards of the Soviet era completely repelled the desire to succumb to propaganda slogans).
Summarize. Stop smoking only on the principle of "once and for all". Quitting smoking is necessary only when the determination to do so is comparable to the desire to live. By the way, the immoral coding method is also based on this principle. But this problem should be solved at the level of the legislative branch, since the fraudulent aspect is evident in this case.
