But then I found out that he suddenly gave up smoking. I was surprised and asked him why. He told me a story, which made me very educated. I sincerely admire him.
Once, he went to Beijing on business, returned to the hotel after a busy day, and it rained heavily again. He wanted to go out for a walk, but looking at the pouring rain, he could only look at the rain and sigh. He ate a casual meal in the hotel, smoked two cigarettes in bed and soon fell asleep.
At three o'clock in the middle of the night, a thunder woke him up, and he suddenly fell asleep. Listening to the rain outside the window, he turned on the light and sat up. Before going to bed, he habitually touched the cigarette case on the table, but there was not even one in it.
Hey, do I remember another box?
He got out of bed and looked in his suitcase. He searched all his pockets, but couldn't find a cigarette. He looked everywhere for a cigarette or a cigarette in that corner of the room, but found nothing. Then he called the front desk and asked if there was a cigarette at the front desk. The front desk replied that there were instant noodles and no cigarettes. He put down the phone in disappointment.
Why don't you go out and buy a box? Lao Guo got dressed and went out. It is still raining outside. The shops and supermarkets across the street have long been closed, and only a few street lamps are standing in the rain.
what can I do?
People can be strange sometimes. The more there is no smoke, the greater the desire to smoke. People who smoke heavily have this experience.
Lao Guo asked the front desk and told me that there was a day and night supermarket about 50 meters on the left side of the hotel, and there might be people. So Lao Guo took the elevator to enter the room again, ready to take the suitcase umbrella to the supermarket to buy cigarettes.
However, when he took out his umbrella from his suitcase, he suddenly stopped and asked himself, "What am I doing for a cigarette in the middle of the night?" ?
Lao Guo thought for a moment and sat down on the bed, thinking, anyway, I am a middle-level cadre in the company, and I am also a prominent figure in business negotiation and reception. A successful white-collar worker who thinks he has quality and brains stayed up in the middle of the night and went to buy a pack of cigarettes in the rain. What kind of behavior is this? This behavior seems ridiculous now!
At the thought of this, Lao Guo suddenly felt childish and ridiculous. He slapped himself in the face and felt contempt for his behavior.
Later, Lao Guo thought it was a big night for smoking. It seems that this addiction can really make people lose their minds and do some ridiculous things. With this in mind, Lao Guo decided to give up smoking.
He took off his clothes and went to bed, looked at the empty cigarette case in front of the bed, took it to his nose and sniffed it hard, then crumpled it up and threw it into the trash can, and then fell asleep.
After a sigh of relief, Lao Guo had a good sleep and woke up early in the morning without wanting to smoke!
Since then, Lao Guo has never actually touched a cigarette.
Of course, without cigarettes, Lao Guo's business has not been greatly affected. On the contrary, it was smooth sailing. He was the sales champion in the company every year.
I am really surprised by Lao Guo's self-control and perseverance! At the same time, I also taught myself a good lesson. It seems that as long as it can move my heart, there is no habit that I can't change!
