It's always easier to resist in the beginning than at the end!
I found this quote on internet and it seemed pretty much true to me.
I guess we can easily quit any bad habit or unwanted thing towards which we get attached to in the beginning. Because once if we get used to such unwanted things or habits it could/would be difficult for us to get rid of it. So a wise decision is to quit any unwanted thing in the beginning cause it's always easier.
I would like to share my personal experience pertaining to this quote:
I was not fond of songs or music but when I promoted to grade 6th I met a new friend. She was a nice girl but she was addicted to songs and music. She used to sing all day long. As I was in her company I started to listen songs day and night. I didn't knew in the beginning that I'm getting addicted to it. My mother noticed my addiction and very politely she tried to convince me to let go this habit. Listening to songs never seemed harmful to me and I argued with her many times. She alarmed me about the dangers of this addiction. But I didn't noticed that I'm already the victim of this addiction. After few days my mother noticed that I'm getting weaker in studies day by day. She asked me about my poor marks and remind me about my addiction. I couldn't tolerate my bad results and tried very hard to quit this addiction but, I failed. That day my mother remind me about my addiction and said "Excessiveness of any thing can lead you towards destruction". And than I realized that she was right. It was easy for me to resist my addiction in the beginning but I didn't noticed that and suffered a lot.
It may sound weird or silly to some people but it is a serious problem for me as I lost my enthusiasm in my studies due to that addiction.
We all have some addictions but maybe we are too busy to notice them. I am grateful to my mother that she took me out from it so wisely. She didn't forced me but let me experience it all by myself. So that I could learn from it and be aware of such things or addictions in future as well.
I can control myself now, I know when to stop and when to ignore. I learned that prevention is better than cure.

Well, I am addicted to reading books. Sometimes I sacrificed my sleep to read a book because I can't put it down. Just a few days ago, I only slept about 1 and 1/2 hour because I need to finish reading a book. I ended up feeling very sleepy in the office the next day. :D :D :D
Nice... :)
I agree with you,but if it's never too late to fight your addiction to anything, or you can even use it in your side," like the music : you can use it to learn new languages and more if you can play an instrument " .It's nice to have friends that remind you to get back to the right way and keep you away from this addiction .
Thanks everyone for the commment!
That is really bad i saved it as draft to continue other day nd it got published :(
This very true Anah, but there are some exceptional cases.
My eldest brother had such a strong will power that whenever he wished he quit smoking for a long time, and when desire started again. It made no difference for him. Then finally in the old age he quit this habit finally.
Prevention is better than cure.
Thanks for sharing. It's quite true - looking forward to your experience
