Goal-Setting Works!
While some people simply decide to quit smoking and then stop smoking forever, most people need a plan of action which includes goal-setting in order to achieve long-term success.
Choose Small, Easily-Attainable Goals
If you set small goals (such as two-week goals) it is easier to build success after success a little bit at a time. When you meet one of your goals, give yourself a reward. Enjoy each feeling of accomplishment. That is part of the adventure, part of your journey toward a healthy, fit, and smoke-free life!
Your goal will always have three parts: (1) Define your goal; (2) State how you plan to accomplish this goal; and (3) Set a date for its attainment. This is your formula for success.

Is There a Connection Between Smoking and Macular Degeneration?
According to the June 2010 issue of the Archives of Ophthalmology, a recent study has determined that smoking and cholesterol levels increase the risk for early-stage age-related macular degeneration (AMD) which generally doesn’t appear until after the age of 55.
Age-related macular degeneration is a medical condition which usually affects older adults. It results in a loss of vision in the center of the visual field (the macula) because of damage to the retina. It occurs in “dry” and “wet” forms. It is a major cause of visual impairment in older adults. Macular degeneration can make it difficult or impossible to read or recognize faces, although enough peripheral vision remains to allow other activities of daily life.
Is smoking worth the risk of permanently impairing your vision? If you want to stop, but just haven’t been able to, try the 7-day all-natural way to quit smoking forever: The BestWayToQuitSmoking.com Program. It’s only $29.95, is available in English or Spanish, and it will change your life.
