| Summary |
"For self-control to be possible, it is important we prepare our bodies to provide the necessary energy to fuel our mental abilities. Unfortunately, many of us neglect the value of preparing ourselves physically in order to ease the high demands on the demanding self-control process. This chapter speaks about the importance of our physical abilities to fueling effective self-control and details the factors that impact those abilities (sleep, stress, and circadian rhythm). As such, it is important to identify the factors that deprive and exhaust our physical resources so that we are able to maximize our mental capabilities when engaging in goal pursuit"-- Provided by publisher |
