Renaissance French writer Montaigne once said: True freedom is to be able to control oneself at all times. This is the origin of the recently popular saying "Self-discipline gives me freedom."
Self-discipline - It’s really hard to make. I can’t stop eating popcorn every time. I have to eat it all in one bucket. I can’t resist the temptation of popcorn. It wasn’t until Brother Nan told me one day that popcorn contained high levels of lead that I stopped. But every time I pass by a place where popcorn is pumped, there is an invisible "tolerance"
Delayed gratification - I like to save my favorite food for last, and like a life that is bitter first and then sweet. Listen to this Only after taking the course of Teacher Liu Run did I realize that this is delayed gratification!
The difference between delayed gratification and divvying up the pie is that one can be obtained with hard work in front of you, while the other is a good prospect!
So how should I improve my self-control ability? Once you have the formula, it will be easy to understand. There are three ways: first, enhance long-term goals; second, train self-control capabilities; third, reduce short-term temptations.
I am losing weight recently and I need to control my dinner. Every time I smell my mother-in-law’s fragrant cooking, I want to take a bite, "Just one bite...sigh". There is a sentence in Teacher Liu Run's course that inspired me: "You will have so many years to enjoy delicious food in your future life, so what does it matter if you miss one or two meals now?" When you lose weight, you can eat it all."
Haha, let’s try this with my friends who are losing weight!
