If the first 25 years were the first S-Curve, we need nothing except our minds and bodies for the next 17 years of the S-Curve.
That's because the future is us without the extra baggage. Imagine, my biggest challenge in life is smoking. That makes my second biggest challenge [a]s (is) the Bukit Kiara Run.
Now consider that I never smoked at all. Then that particular challenge doesn't even exist. That means, Bukit Kiara is just a walk in the park.
Therefore there is no need for me to carry the burden of smoking to the future. I just carry my body, because the future belongs to a sound mind and a sound body, and nothing else.
One box of cigarettes is equivalent to one meal a day. The economics of it is no longer sensible. So is the health aspect of it.
In the end, the cigarette is nothing more than a need for a dopamine surge and a habit that won't die down.
It is none other than a legacy of a habit that is no longer sensible and meaningful. It is an action out of rote than anything else.
Quitting cigarettes is not a battle, it is not even a fight. It is merely the ability to say no for 5 minutes per impulse.
