Am I Addicted to Smoking? Or is it just a Bad Habit?

Am I Addicted to Smoking? Or is it just a Bad Habit?

When you want to improve a situation, no matter what kind of situation you are dealing with, it’s very important to understand precisely what kind of situation you are in. What type of smoker are you?

There are many types of smokers. Maybe you are a chain smoker? Or are you a party smoker? Or maybe a control freak smoker? I don’t know and frankly, I’m not really  interested in knowing what type of a smoker you are. What is more important is that YOU KNOW what type of smoker you are. Do you smoke first thing in the morning when you wake up? Do you smoke every time you get into your car? Do you smoke your first cigarette only after 5:00 P.M. in the evening?

Have you figured it out? Now you might be wondering what this is all about. Will information about what type of a smoker you are determine whether you can quit easily or not? Or maybe you won’t quit at all? What is going through your mind at the moment? What are you really thinking of at this very instant while reading these words?

Have you captured your thoughts? Fine. Now, please let these thoughts go and promise yourself that you’ll never have these thoughts again. Why? Because these thoughts are limiting you on your way to freedom. As I told you earlier, it’s not important for me to know what you are thinking when you try to put yourself into one of the smoker categories. It’s only important to you.

Whatever the thought might be, it’s a limiting one. I’ll give you just a few possibilities. When you are a chain smoker puffing more than 100 cigarettes a day you might be thinking that you’ll never be able to quit and certainly not without suffering. When you are an occasional smoker who only smokes at parties, you might be telling yourself that your way of smoking is not so bad. After all, you smoke very little and you are fully in control of your smoking habit. At least, that’s what you think. In both cases, these are limiting thoughts that stop you from going further in the process to Final Liberation.

What is it important to consider? What do you have to understand about your situation in order to keep moving forward? Whether you are a heavy smoker or a light smoker, whether you believe it’s a bad habit or a habit you are in control of, it’s vital to understand and realize that smoking is not a bad habit! It’s not a “habit.” It’s an ADDICTION! Clear and simple. This might sound rude to you but that’s the way it is. Smoking is an addiction and yes, you have a drug addiction!

Fear To Stop Smoking

Fear To Stop Smoking

Fear is a belief. It’s a sense of certainty about something. It’s a belief that something or someone will cause us pain.

You’ll see in another article the different beliefs we have about smoking. For now, it’s enough that you understand where your fear is coming from and how it’s created.

As you saw earlier, there are quite a lot of fears we have about smoking. So, where do they come from? Why do you associate so much pain with these things that they become your fears? Why are you so afraid of quitting? What holds you back from quitting smoking now? Why are you afraid of withdrawal symptoms? Why do you fear you won’t succeed?

Unless you have tried to quit before, it’s not possible that those beliefs of fear have been created through your own experience, right? Moreover, even if you had tried to quit and it didn’t work out, did all those fears appear at once?

Alternatively, do you think there might be something else that has formed those beliefs in your mind? You’ll find out that most of your fears, most of your beliefs and illusions are created by brainwashing about smoking, created by society, other smokers and also non-smokers.

Once you understand where your beliefs come from, you can start to analyze them. You can start evaluating them from an objective point of view. Notice that you are the only person who can do this!

A book like this can only guide you through these beliefs. The person who actually evaluates these beliefs and feels certainty about them is you! That is exactly what you are going to do throughout this book. You are going to find out what beliefs about smoking you have. You are going to discover whether these beliefs are true beliefs or whether they are just illusions.

Once you have done this analysis, you are going to analyze the reasons you smoke. You and I are not going to waste our time looking for the reasons why you should stop smoking. You know these and they are not going to help you. You and I are going to remove all the reasons you smoke.

You are going to free yourself from all the obligations you feel towards smoking. You are going to free yourself from the desire to smoke a cigarette. By accomplishing this, you are going to reach a tremendous state of freedom and joy. Lust for life will become your new motto! You are going to understand that there is absolutely nothing to be afraid of when it comes to quitting smoking. You are going to discover that all the fears you have are just illusions. The moment you’ll be a non-smoker you’ll fully agree with this. For now, I leave you with a thought to open your mind.

“Do the thing you are afraid to do, and the death of fear is certain”

Reasons Smoking Addiction - How does it all start?

Reasons Smoking Addiction – How does it all start?

Imagine that your body has a small balloon inside it. Let’s say that we have a balloon for each addiction that exists. The balloon is just lying there. It doesn’t cause any harm since it’s not inflated. For the same reason, we don’t feel anything because it’s not inflated.

When you smoke your first cigarette, what happens? Nicotine is a very fast drug. It goes through your veins and blood and in no time, the nicotine has found its way to the nicotine balloon and starts to inflate the balloon for the first time. By inflating the balloon, the balloon is pushing aside some of your intestines and fighting to claim his spot in your body. Because the balloon is inflating gradually, you are not aware of this change in your body.

From the moment you extinguish your cigarette the balloon starts to deflate again leaving behind an open space. Every time you light another cigarette, the balloon inflates again, and becomes a support for your intestines. When your cigarette is finished, the balloon starts to deflate again and starts creating an empty feeling in your stomach.

This empty feeling is caused by the deflated balloon now is no longer supporting your intestines. The balloon has created a vacuum in your body and your body wants to fill up this vacuum again. This is a way to describe the empty feeling you feel when you haven’t smoked for a while.

Your body starts creating a need for a cigarette and nicotine. Without nicotine, without the inflated balloon inside, you start feeling uncomfortable because of this vacuum, this hungry feeling you have inside. From the moment you light a cigarette, the balloon inflates and you feel comfortable again. You feel sure and supported because of the inflated balloon.

Actually, when you smoke, you feel the same as the moment before you started smoking. This is important to understand. When you smoke a cigarette, you take yourself and your body back to the condition it was in before you ever started smoking! If it’s not clear or if you are still confused about this sentence, read it again and think about it for a while. Let it really sink into your mind and make sure you fully understand what we mean here.

When you smoke a cigarette, you take yourself back to the same condition you were in before you started smoking! What are the effects of this? How do we understand this? What are the causes? First, do you agree with what I’ve said above? Maybe you don’t and I politely ask you to reread what is written.

My Time To Quit Smoking: How Do You Do It?

My Time To Quit – How Do You Do It?

All these suggestions are stored somewhere in your mind; “My time to quit smoking”. These suggestions then become the pillars for certain beliefs in your mind. Beliefs are very powerful and they work in our subconscious mind. This means that we don’t notice that they have an influence on our daily behavior. They do, however, and in a very convincing way.

Just as an example:

It was accepted for thousands of years that no human being could run a mile under four minutes. So, for ages and ages, nobody did. Until there was an athlete called Roger Bannister who ran the mile in 3:59! Amazing!

What is more amazing is the fact that within the year, Bannister changed the limiting belief of the four-minute mile; several other athletes broke that so-called impossible barrier. Shows you just how powerful a belief can be. Notice that this was also a belief, created by suggestions and brainwashing of society and peer groups.

Human behavior is guided by the beliefs you have. Your brain is constantly asking two questions: When I do this, will it give me pleasure or pain?

What should I do to avoid pain and gain pleasure?

Your brain is looking for answers and these answers are given by the beliefs you have developed through the years. These are generalizations, things you have accepted to be true. You have given a certain meaning to things and events and these are going to determine your behavior. You could say a belief is a kind of feeling of certainty about the meaning of something, for example, fire is hot. This is a general belief most people share.

How have you arrived at this belief? By having enough references and experiences to support it? You can compare a belief to a tabletop with legs under it. It’s the legs that support the tabletop. These legs are the references and experiences you have in your life.

When we now go back to smoking, you have formed beliefs based on suggestions you get from our society, both smoking and non-smoking society. Apart from these suggestions, what else makes you believe your belief? Is there something else that enforces the beliefs or illusions you already have?

Quit Smoking Techniques -You're Brainwashed!

Quit Smoking Techniques -You’re Brainwashed!

Let’s now have a look at who has provided you with suggestions about cigarettes and how you are brainwashed by the smoker’s society. Most of us started smoking under some kind of social pressure. This social pressure came from a group of people, friends or family who were smoking at the moment when you reached for your first cigarette. When you are a young smoker you probably started smoking in order to belong to a group, feel cool, feel like one of your heroes, feel more charming or lose weight.

If you were older, you probably started due to a stressful situation, a relationship that ended, a difficult exam or a new job, even a baby in the family. Perhaps you wanted to do something exciting, you wanted to feel more alive, or you needed to concentrate on something and then you were offered a cigarette.

Just in this variety of reasons, you can find contradictions. Smoking to concentrate and smoking to alleviate boredom, smoking in stress situations and smoking when relaxed. You hear them tell you how tasty a cigarette is after dinner. How they light a cigarette first thing in the morning and how they enjoy it. How they have a puff when they have to think and concentrate, how a cigarette helps them to get fantastic ideas, how they have seduced a partner by blowing smoke in their face!

Unbelievable isn’t it?

You hear all the good things about smoking from those people who know it, smokers.

Moreover, and this makes the cigarette trap complete, you also hear many warnings from smokers, which are meant to discourage you from starting smoking. They tell you about the downside of smoking. It will destroy your health, cost a lot of money, limit your social freedom, and make you hooked for life, and so on.

When it comes to quitting smoking, the stories you hear are clear. Quitting is very difficult and you suffer doing it. It’s impossible to quit. It’s the hardest thing to do if you smoke more than a pack a day. Without medical help, you can never quit. Even if you quit, you’ll restart one day. Your body will shake because it needs nicotine. You’ll become angry with friends and family. You’ll have problems concentrating and you’ll finally start smoking again. You’ll hear from people who have tried a number of times and failed every time. Others have used all the pills and patches available and still smoke a pack a day.

These are the kind of hetero-suggestions we get from the smoking world.

Information about Smoking

Information about Smoking

That’s a lot contradictory information, isn’t it? Imagine you are 12 years old and your parents smoke. In the morning, you see your father having breakfast. After breakfast, he drinks his cup of coffee, lights a cigarette, and says, “Hmmm, this tastes so good. It will be a great day today, son. Good luck at school.” Then you arrive at school where you see some of your friends hiding in the bathroom smoking.

When you enter the school building, you see a big sign telling you smoking is not allowed and you see giant posters informing you that smoking kills. You have biology this morning and the teacher begins a lesson on smoking, the causes of lung cancer and its consequences.

All this information is penetrating your mind on a continuous basis. This is very confusing, even for the brightest minds. Even if you are older, man or woman, the information is contradictory and penetrates your mind from the day you are born. The tobacco industry makes sure they have appropriate commercials for all age groups and sexes. They make clear differences between, for example, male and female commercials.

Over the last couple of years, there have been visible changes in advertising trends, which focus more on the female audience. The reason for this is quite simple. They noticed that more and more men are quitting and they want to keep their market share. So, they are looking for new markets and women seem to be a very attractive and successful target.

It’s a pity that they play on the weak points of their future customers to seduce them. Many advertisements clearly imply that smoking keeps your weight under control or even makes you lose weight! That way it’s easier to attract more clients. Once these messages have penetrated into the minds of hundred of thousands of women, it becomes much more difficult for them to quit. More on this particular topic will be discussed later.

Let’s now continue with the contradictory messages or suggestions you receive from our society on a daily basis. It’s important to realize that these suggestions are a part of your daily life. This means that you don’t actually hear them in a conscious way. These contradictory suggestions have become a part of your general belief system. This makes this society brainwashing even stronger and more powerful.

These contradicting suggestions are a danger and one of the main reasons why it’s so difficult to stop smoking. It’s also the main reason why you actually started smoking in the beginning. I’ll explain why later.

Quit Smoking Timeline: When Did Your Smoking Addiction Start?

Quit Smoking Timeline: When Did Your Smoking Addiction Start?

When you go back to the time you started smoking, what are the first thoughts that come to your mind? Are these positive or negative thoughts? Maybe both? Let me share with you how I see it and how I’ve experienced it throughout my life.

I believe you are confronted with at least two groups: overall society and smoking society. In overall society, you have been confronted since childhood, with advertising about smoking telling you how cool it is. Adults told you how smoking helped them to relax and concentrate better. On other occasions, you heard people say that smoking helped them to lose weight. When you went to the movies, you saw all your heroes smoking cigarettes and looking cool. They smoked a cigarette when something exciting was about to happen or after they did a heroic act.

If you were to believe the tobacco advertisements, smoking would make you more assertive and glamorous, would help you to control your weight, add excitement to your life, give you more sex appeal, more romance and would even make you sportier. Can you imagine!

When you watch a movie where somebody is executed, what is his or her last wish? A cigarette! The heavily wounded gets a cigarette as relief in a war movie. All this information penetrates unconsciously into our brains. This is one category of hetero-suggestion society tells us about smoking. A hetero-suggestion is simply a suggestion coming from someone other than oneself.

Another category of society, which grows every day, tells you that smoking is bad. It’s bad for your health, dangerous for pregnant women and you can get cancer from it. You hear about absurd trials where cigarette companies are sued for billions of dollars. You see more and more places where smoking is forbidden; public places, airplanes, trains, bars, cities.

The message is clear; smoking is very bad and dangerous for your health. Smoking is antisocial. It will diminish your chances of getting a job, it’s forbidden in so many places, etc. That’s the second category of hetero-suggestions you hear and experience about smoking.

Quit Smoking Without Pain

Quit Smoking Without Pain

Unbelievable isn’t it? Personally, I can’t believe that there is one smoker in the world who consciously wanted to become a smoker. It’s something you grow into, because of all the traps that are set for you. The nicotine trap, the society trap, the habit trap. Before you know it, your body is addicted to the nicotine and you become an addict. You didn’t choose to become a smoker. It just happens in the process.

Of course, you shouldn’t use that argument to feel sorry for or excuse yourself. On the contrary, it should give you even more reasons to free yourself from a situation and condition you never wanted to be in. You didn’t choose to become a smoker but you can and will choose to become a non-smoker!

The fact that you have admitted to yourself and others in your close circle that you have a drug addiction is a very important step forwards. From now on, you know where you stand. This is important because without knowing it you can never be sure if you have made any progress.

The other major advantage is the fact that you can start looking for the proper tools to fix the situation. As long as you believe it‘s just a bad habit or something you choose to do yourself, you’re likely to look for solutions in that specific field. As you saw earlier, the fact that you believe smoking is just a bad habit makes quitting smoking much more difficult. That is because you know that it’s difficult to break bad habits.

The fact that you believe this makes smoking your top bad habit example. Unless you admit what you honestly know, namely that you are a drug addict, a NICOTINE addict, it’s a vicious circle, which you won’t escape.

The beautiful thing in admitting this is that now you can choose to set yourself free and become a free person again. You can now take the necessary steps to go back to that moment before you became a smoker.

By the time you know what the best moment is to set yourself free, you’ll already be in a completely different state, in which you’ll no longer desire a cigarette. Before you achieve this wonderful moment it’s important that you understand how you are brainwashed into smoking and how you can control it.

Smoking a Bad Habit or Drug Addiction?

Smoking a Bad Habit or Drug Addiction?

There is some good logic in understanding why smokers and non-smokers want to believe that smoking is just a bad habit. First, we have many habits in our lives, good habits and bad ones. If smoking were just a bad habit, it would be so easy to quit! I wouldn’t have to write this book. You could quit just like that! We break good and bad habits every single day. The main reason we believe smoking is a bad habit is that we are brainwashed by society telling us so.

Because we believe that smoking is a bad habit and because we believe that it’s difficult to break bad habits, we find it difficult to quit. Do you follow this?  Why is it then so difficult to stop smoking? Well, first of all, it’s very easy to quit, that’s the purpose of this whole book. But the reason is because smoking is an addiction to one of the most refined drugs we know, nicotine!

As long as you believe that smoking is just a bad habit, you’ll continue to find it difficult to quit. Once you understand it’s an addiction, it becomes easy. Of course, nobody likes to admit to being an addict. It sounds pretty lousy and weak to admit to your friends and family that you are an addict, a drug addict. It sounds much better to say, “Well, everybody has their bad habits, mine is smoking.” Or you brush off the idea that you are addicted by claiming you are fully in control of your smoking habit.

Telling your wife that you are an addict is not easy. It’s even more difficult to admit it to yourself! I remember how I pretended for years and years that I wasn’t an addict. I really did! Smoking over 100 cigarettes a day, I was still claiming that I was smoking because I wanted to and that I was fully in control. I proudly told my friends I could smoke three packs in one night and then refrain from smoking for six hours the next day because I visited my parents, where of course I couldn’t smoke.

So, if I really wanted, I could quit in a split second. I was in control, and at that moment in my life I wanted to smoke. The worst thing was that I was not only telling these stupid lies my friends and family, but also to myself! As long as I was telling these lies to myself, how could I ever quit? I had to be honest with myself. I had to tell myself the truth. Why did I smoke? How did it happen?

That brings me to a point around which I believe a lot of brainwashing and mistakes are associated. When did you take the decision to become a smoker? When was it? Do you remember the place, the specific moment? Silly question? Just think about it, did you ever consciously choose to become a smoker?

Unbelievable isn’t it? Personally, I can’t believe that there is one smoker in the world who consciously wanted to become a smoker. It’s something you grow into, because of all the traps that are set for you. The nicotine trap, the society trap, the habit trap. Before you know it, your body is addicted to the nicotine and you become an addict. You didn’t choose to become a smoker. It just happens in the process.

Beating Drug Addiction - What Type of Smoker are You?

Beating Drug Addiction – What Type of Smoker are You?

When you want to improve a situation, no matter what kind of situation you are dealing with, it’s very important to understand precisely what kind of situation you are in. What type of smoker are you?

There are many types of smokers. Maybe you are a chain smoker? Or are you a party smoker? Or maybe a control freak smoker? I don’t know and frankly, I’m not really interested in knowing what type of a smoker you are. What is more important is that YOU KNOW what type of smoker you are. Do you smoke first thing in the morning when you wake up? Do you smoke every time you get into your car? Do you smoke your first cigarette only after 5:00 P.M. in the evening?

Have you figured it out? Now you might be wondering what this is all about. Will information about what type of a smoker you are determine whether you can quit easily or not? Or maybe you won’t quit at all? What is going through your mind at the moment? What are you really thinking of at this very instant while reading these words?

Have you captured your thoughts? Fine. Now, please let these thoughts go and promise yourself that you’ll never have these thoughts again. Why? Because these thoughts are limiting you on your way to freedom. As I told you earlier, it’s not important for me to know what you are thinking when you try to put yourself into one of the smoker categories. It’s only important to you.

Whatever the thought might be, it’s a limiting one. I’ll give you just a few possibilities. When you are a chain smoker puffing more than 100 cigarettes a day you might be thinking that you’ll never be able to quit and certainly not without suffering. When you are an occasional smoker who only smokes at parties, you might be telling yourself that your way of smoking is not so bad. After all, you smoke very little and you are fully in control of your smoking habit. At least, that’s what you think. In both cases, these are limiting thoughts that stop you from going further in the process to Final Liberation.

What is it important to consider? What do you have to understand about your situation in order to keep moving forward? Whether you are a heavy smoker or a light smoker, whether you believe it’s a bad habit or a habit you are in control of, it’s vital to understand and realize that smoking is not a bad habit! It’s not a “habit.” It’s an ADDICTION! Clear and simple. This might sound rude to you but that’s the way it is. Smoking is an addiction and yes, you have a drug addiction!

Are you still with me? Good. This is something you must realize and agree with. You have to recognize that you have a drug addiction. As long as you don’t admit it to yourself, there is no solution for you. It was a real eye opener I had to accept. I’m not saying that you ARE a drug addict; I only say that you have a drug addiction. The difference is that in the first phrase you would have to deal with a done situation. In the second phrase, you are in a situation that you want to change. You suffer from this addiction and you want to get rid of it.

As you saw at the beginning of this chapter, there are quite a lot of fears we have about smoking. So, where do they come from? Why do you associate so much pain with these things that they become your fears? Why are you so afraid of quitting? What holds you back from quitting smoking now? Why are you afraid of withdrawal symptoms? Why do you fear you won’t succeed?

Unless you have tried to quit before, it’s not possible that those beliefs of fear have been created through your own experience, right? Moreover, even if you had tried to quit and it didn’t work out, did all those fears appear at once?

Alternatively, do you think there might be something else that has formed those beliefs in your mind? You’ll find out that most of your fears, most of your beliefs and illusions are created by brainwashing about smoking, created by society, other smokers and also non-smokers.

Once you understand where your beliefs come from, you can start to analyze them. You can start evaluating them from an objective point of view. Notice that you are the only person who can do this!

A book like this can only guide you through these beliefs. The person who actually evaluates these beliefs and feels certainty about them is you! That is exactly what you are going to do throughout this book. You are going to find out what beliefs about smoking you have. You are going to discover whether these beliefs are true beliefs or whether they are just illusions.

Once you have done this analysis, you are going to analyze the reasons you smoke. You and I are not going to waste our time looking for the reasons why you should stop smoking. You know these and they are not going to help you. You and I are going to remove all the reasons you smoke.

Easy Way To Quit Smoking

If everything you do, you do either to avoid pain or to gain pleasure, then why do you still smoke? Everybody knows the painful side effects of smoking. You know that you are killing yourself. You know that by smoking you increase your chances of getting cancer, etc. So, if this principle makes sense, you should quit immediately, right? Well, there is also the other side. This side contains all the illusions, all the beliefs that you have created in your mind about the pleasures of smoking. The basic reason why you still smoke is that you actually link more pain to quitting today than putting it off for a while. You feel more attracted to the pleasures of smoking than to the pain you might feel in twenty years.

On the other hand, you know deep down that you want to quit, you know that you want to free yourself from this nicotine addiction. You feel frustrated, you feel overwhelmed from time to time, and you feel angry with yourself because you know you should take action. However, you don’t do anything. You don’t try to change your behavior because of a deeper underlying cause. Once you understand the cause and therefore the reason why you smoke, you’ll be able to remove the cause and thus stop smoking.

The first step in changing anything is to understand the true power of the pain-pleasure principle. Think back about some decisions you have taken recently. Why did you make those decisions? Why did you do certain things and why didn’t you do the other ones? When you look closely, you’ll realize that it happened because you thought that doing or deciding on a particular thing would give you more pleasure and less pain.

Most of our decisions are short-term. Will it mean pleasure in the short-term? However, often things that mean pleasure in the short-term mean pain in the long-term. Just think about the phenomenon of procrastination. At a certain moment, it’s much more pleasurable not to take any action. Later on, when it’s almost too late, you find yourself in the middle of a painful situation, which forces you to take action at once.

It’s the same with smoking. Most smokers think in the short-term and are afraid to look at things in the long-term. Why are they afraid to look further? Deep down they know the long-term results of their actions. That is why they focus on the short-term, the present. That means pleasure.

To stop smoking means pain when compared to smoking a cigarette. That is at least the idea that a smoker has. So where does this idea come from? It’s not the actual pain that drives us, but the fear that something will cause pain. In addition, it’s not actual pleasure that drives us, but our belief, our sense of certainty that taking a certain action will lead to pleasure. This is how we arrive at fear and beliefs.

Fear is a belief. It’s a sense of certainty about something. It’s a belief that something or someone will cause us pain. You’ll see in another chapter the different beliefs we have about smoking. For now, it’s enough that you understand where your fear is coming from and how it’s created.

Afraid to Quit Smoking

One of the major reasons people keep smoking is because they are afraid to quit. It is usually an underlying reason most people are not consciously aware of. Just think about the following statement. If I were to tell you right now, that it’s over, that you would never ever be allowed to smoke another cigarette, how would you feel? Are you afraid? Do you feel frightened? Do you have butterflies in your stomach?

How can I know how you feel? Simple, most smokers feel this way. There are several common fears for smokers. I think one of the biggest fears is the fear of not succeeding. You are afraid to fail. Another fear is the fear of going through misery and sacrifice. You are also afraid of not being able to enjoy life fully, once you have quit. You are afraid of having to cope at social events without cigarettes.

Finally, you are afraid that you’ll miss many joyful things, once you have stop smoking. Because smokers have all these fears, it’s difficult to connect with them on the subject of quitting. They are so afraid of this event that they exclude everything that could even remind them of it. They even deny it.

As a smoker, you smoke a lot of cigarettes when you feel fear. When you are afraid of deadlines, when you are afraid of losing your job, when you are afraid of a rejection, etc. So, when I tell you that smoking is bad, that you can get cancer from it, that they might have to cut off your legs, that you are killing yourself, most likely, you’ll become afraid and you’ll want a cigarette. In such a condition, your mind is not open to listening, not open to ways to stop smoking.

Why is it that you are so afraid of just the thought of quitting?

Why are you so afraid?

What are your feelings based upon?

To answer these questions we should look at the basis of fear or the basis of our behavior in general. There is one single driving force for everything we do. Everything human beings do, they do for a reason. This reason or driving force is called The Pleasure-Pain Principle. It states that everything we do, we do either because we want to avoid pain or because we have a strong desire to gain pleasure. It’s important that you understand the principle and its consequences.
