Discussion Are you good at delaying gratification?

Only for things I know will be guaranteed payoffs I always save my best weed nugget for last for example.

Although last time the police arrested me and took my big nug I was saving for 5 days straight and it pissed me off I should've just smoked it day 1

lol yah that must have sucked!

I definitely yeah find it hard to do things that are hard work and not guaranteed to bring results.

Which to be honest is a shame because that applies to some biggies like asking out girls and applying for jobs!

Because it feels better the longer you delay it. Delayed gratification is like edging basically

lol

I think mostly... at least in the way I meant it... it's about focusing on long-term goals. For example job hunting, training, asking out women, etc.

Instead of the very high time preference solution which would be to jerk off then go rob the local store. XD
