More on Experiments in Self Discipline
Here is an excerpt from the New York Times that does a great job of putting in words what I’m trying to accomplish with the Water Cure Experiment in Self Discipline.
“Learning to bring your behavior under control even with arbitrary rules does build character in that it makes you better able to achieve the things you want to achieve later on,’’ said Dr. Baumeister. “Self-control is a limited resource. People make all these different New Year’s resolutions, but they are all pulling off from the same pool of your willpower. It’s better to make one resolution and stick to it than make five.’’
I guess great minds really do think alike. But, remember Elemental Truths scooped the NYT this time.
