Conquering your Goliath

i am so encouraged that my blogs are helping and supporting people I have decided to continue with the theme I started yesterday Conquering your Goliath. Many of us see a tough situation or difficult task ahead as something you want to avoid or not do i.e. stopping smoking ! We make all sorts of excuses to not do it or avoid it and in the end slacking off. If David decided that hey that big dude is immovable I'll do it tomorrow or never imagine the consequences? His army would have been crushed! If you don't stop smoking you will get ill you will loose out on opportunities to play with your kids to live a healthy life, getting a job that has a great salary but the one term is non-smokers only !! Face up to your Goliath this can be anything hard in your life take it by the horns and crush it, be brave you can do this !! With smoking  take it day by day take pride in the small compliments you get from friends and family, your boss or work buddies perhaps so when the times are hard you can think back on the smiling faces the encouragement you will find here in Become an EX. This site was a life saver for me as I was able to read and get daily nourishment from its members. No one here is here to judge you but to encourage and support you. 

One day at a time you will get braver you will get stronger even if you haven't quit yet and are counting down the days to your quit date take heart in the knowledge that you are not alone we are a family of conquerors kick that Goliaths (Cigarettes) ass. 

Have a great day guys

i am a musician and biker at heart. I have a gorgeous little daughter who I treasure with all my heart, she is one of the main reasons for me stopping smoking. i want to walk her down the isle one day. My wife is a smoker which is a challenge but she supports my quit. I had a really big scare on the 2nd Jan 2017 where I stopped breathing everytime I fell asleep and had bad chest pains throughout the night, this was the time to say enough. I am getting healthy again and i am back at gym and enjoying the benefits daily of stopping smoking. Onwards and upwards.
