Chip Heath Quotes
Self-control Is An Exhaustible Resource. This Is A Crucial Realization, Because When We Talk About "self-control," We Don't Mean The Narrow Sense Of The Word, As In The Willpower Needed To Fight Vice (smokes, Cookies, Alcohol). We're Talking About A Broader Kind Of Self-supervision. Think Of The Way Your Mind Works When You're Giving Negative Feedback To An Employee, Or Assembling A New Bookshelf, Or Learning A New Dance. You Are Careful And Deliberate With Your Words Or Movements. It Feels Like There's A Supervisor On Duty. That's Self-control, Too.
