Do you give yourself permission to indulge in something by focusing on its most virtuous quality?

? (4)

Thinking in terms of “right” and “wrong” instead of remembering what we really want will trigger competing impulses and license self-sabotaging behavior.

如果只是按照“正確”和“錯(cuò)誤”來判斷做過的事,而不是記住我們真正想要的東西,這會(huì)引發(fā)和目標(biāo)相抵觸的沖動(dòng),并允許我們做出一些妨礙自己的行為。


??Summary

The halo effect exists in our daily life.We often choose to judge others and things? by oneself with prejudice.We need to expand our perspective? in order to ?get a comprehensive understanding of all things.

When we turn willpower challenges into measures of moral worth, being good gives us permission to be bad. For better self-control, forget virtue, and focus on goals and values.

Thanks for Everything!
