How many of his father-march myths and this is a sense of reasons?

So I was recently reading a book that had to do with like willpower and habits and all

these kind of things that were really fascinating to me at least.

But in the course of the book, they gave a couple different examples and the examples

were not necessarily related to willpower as much as they were related to our perception

of failure.

So as an example, here's one person studying and they have to get their work done, right?

So they're studying and they keep being tempted to take a break.

And they're like, no, no, I'm going to study for a whole hour.

I'm going to study for two hours.

And then I'll take my break.

And every time that temptation to take a break comes up, they resist it.

And then finally, it's okay.

The amount of time has passed and so I'll take my break.

And they took their break.

And that was like sense of like, oh, that's great because their willpower was engaged and

they were able to resist the temptation to take a break early and to like distract themselves.

They were stuck to the task.

Super good.

Other example, someone on a diet and they were trying to restrict their, you know, calories.

That's what a diet is.

Okay.
