The brain is like a muscle that can be trained to resist temptation.

Self-control is the ability to pursue what is most important over what is most urgent.

Understanding the triggers of temptation is the first step to mastering self-control.

The key to self-regulation is to change your environment, not your willpower.

Habits are the foundation of self-control.

Resisting temptation is easier when you have a clear vision of your goals.

Mindfulness can strengthen your self-control by helping you understand your impulses.

Delaying gratification is a skill that can be developed through practice.

Self-control is not about deprivation, but about choosing long-term satisfaction over short-term pleasure.

The secret to self-discipline is to make your desired behavior the default option.

Willpower is a limited resource that needs to be managed wisely.

The more you practice self-control, the easier it becomes to maintain it.
