Character Is Everything: 5th In A 10 Part Series - Self Control Be Simply Fit

    • Education

The concepts of self-control, delayed gratification and discipline seem so counter to our cultural values. We use our credit cards because we want things right away. We become impatient if we wait more than a few moments at a drive-through at McDonalds. We eat ourselves into obesity and poor health because it feels good, with little consideration of the long-term consequences. Self-control should be graded in school and looked at as a quality necessary for success as an adult. We need to teach our children this important as I believe it is a quality necessary for lifelong success. Listen in as Jim holds court.
