Ugh...Perhaps at some point I'll lighten up and actually laugh at how ridiculous that is.

Next question...How do I exert self-control? There are two particular scenarios I'm thinking of, but since they're quite different, I suppose a general answer would help.
Identify the stressors by which you loose self-control.

Isolate the stressors.

Restructure the schemas surrounding those stressors.

Positively reinforce the restructured schemas.

I'm in no room to talk about this whatsoever.

I'll take a slightly deconstructionist view this time around:

In asking the question, you've obfuscated the answer.

Stressors are very easy to identify and isolate. It's definitely the restructuring that presents the challenge. Aaaand of course I can't reinforce if I can't restructure.


Next philosophical question: Do you think that people's core qualities/behaviours can change, or are most destined to remain essentially the same, even if they are growing as people?

Core qualities, I believe, cannot change. Behavior can change, but the more "core" it is, the more difficult the change necessary.
