It is a drug that suppresses addictive behavior.
Developing discipline is developing the ability to delay gratification for greater reward. Taking away the (need for) gratification means not having to learn the ability to delay.
- const_cast 1y agoA lot of people never need to learn the ability to delay, me included. I eat whatever I want, whenever I want, and I’m thin. Peoples brains are all wired differently, and some are wired in such a way where they’re forced to struggle in modern society. I can sit here and say I’m more disciplined or better than others, but I’m just not. I’m lucky. If others can harness that luck, that’s good for them.
