The negative impact of smoking for youreself is that health is disturbed

and can even lead to diseases that may be difficult to cure and can lead to death.
And the negative impact for others who breathe the smoke is that it can cause
health problems for those who have inhaled other people’s smoke.

2.6. The Factors Influencing Someone to be Smokers

a. The External Factor

Strictly, at the first, someone just wanted to try out how the sensation of
smoking, if someone tried his intention only once, but the content contained in the
cigarette made them want to try it for the umpteenth time to cause the taste of
opium taste appeared the person will find it difficult to stop smoking.

b. The Internal Factor

Like environmental factors, for example in a bad association, someone has

many friends who may not be good associations so that someone is affected to
4

 participate in the world of association. Because in society, young people are easily
influenced to do things that are not good, not good for themselves and for others.
Even when they are already in bad relationships, they not only enter world of
smoking but can also make themselves do more than just smoke.

2.7. The Opinion of Smoking According to Group

a. Cindy Cristina Diandra

In my opinion, smoking is a bad habit that can harm the health of the
human body, because as we know that cigarettes contain harmful
chemicals that can damage important organs in the body such as the
lungs, heart, and others . Also smoking can harm people around us for
example like passive smokers who can suffer losses because the active
smoker does not pay attention to the people around him.
b. Gutrado Palajones
Smoking is an activity of burning tobacco and then being sucked and
removed from someone’s body that occurs in the community. This
smoking activity has also been carried out since ancient times and is still
carried out until now with various kinds of cigarretes without thinking
first about the impact that will be caused later on.
c. Riska Handayani
I think people who want to smoke or not are the rights of each
individual. But for all of us who might not have entered the world
smoking, do not we intend to try smoking what the sensation is, because
we know a lot of negative things caused by cigarettes, for ourselves and
for others.

d. Septo Deka Naga

In my opinion smoking is one of the activities that is very
common for young people and the elderly, and this is one of the
activities that have a negative impact on active smokers and fascists.

5
 Smoking is also one of the causes of most dangerous diseases, where
smoking realted illnesses are a disease that I am very afraid of because
smoking is very threatening to heart health, and a smoker generally
influanced by curiosity obour smoking, so we as young people can think
positively so as not to fall into a smoker.

2.8. The Solution for The Smokers

a. Help with Sports

Conducting light exercise activitieson regular basis like jogging, biking,

and other sports can help us in the process of stop smoking, because we begin to
apply a healthy lifestyle within us and do not give our free time to negative
things that is smoking , but use the free time in the direction of activities positive
and beneficial to our health.

b. Support from The Surroundings

if you want to really quit smoking, then start helping from the people
around like family, our close friends, as well asthe closest people around you to
remind that smoking is very harmful to the health of the body and it can be done
continuosly. So, the emergence of continuosly. So, the emergence of
consciousness within you to quit smoking or not smoking again.

c. Change The Cigarettes with Others

You can change habits not to smoke again, by changing habits not to
smoke again, by changing the cigarette that is ussually consumed with his
succesor as a gum, brown, fruit juice, and so on. May initially look dificult, but
if you get used to forget your habits that like to smoke.

d. Following a Positive Activity

If you want to really succeed in quitting smoking, you can start by busy
yourself with positive activities, such as more developing themselves toward

6
 positive activities such as environmental care and health care so that it can help
you to stay away from smoking and start a new habit for healthy life.

e. Make a Commitment to Stop Smoking

You can make commitment to stop smoking, you can start by asking
yourself questions, for example :
a. Why did you decide to stop smoking?
b. What are the benefits for the health of your body if you really don’t
consume cigarettes again?
These questions can be a reference for yourself to rally make the decision
not to smoke again, so that answer to the commitment to stop smoking
