Exercising and participating in sports is nearly impossible if you smoke cigarettes. 3. Stay informed. Young smokers are 100 times more likely to smoke marijuana and become ad dieted to other illicit substances such as heroin and cocaine. 4. Be aware of the risks. Smoking can lead to many physical problems, including emphysema, heart disease, stroke, and cancer. 5. Keep your edge. Smoking makes you smell bad, gives you bad breath, and gives you premature wrinkles. 6. Play it safe. Experimenting with smoking could lead to full-fledged addiction and a lifetime of trying to quit. 7. Do the smart thing. Smoking puts your health and the health of those around you at risk. 8. Get with the program. Smoking isn't "in" any more! 9. Be a real friend. If you know someone who smokes, urge your friend to get help and quit. Quit for good: here's how!
