Psychology behind self-control

Psychology behind self-control

 

          Too many people lack self-control. As a result, too few people understand how to have and maintain self-control. Self-control is about being self-fulfilled and realizing how to balance your mental and emotional control to optimize your physical control.

 

          People’s mental control affects their emotional control. People’s emotional control affects their mental control. Both mental and emotional control are indicators of someone’s physical control. This cycle continues over and over again.

 

          Mental control and emotional control directly correlates together. Thus, if you are mentally weak, you are emotionally weak. If you are emotionally weak, you are mentally weak. If you are strong in either one, you are strong in both.

 

          What is mental control? Mental control involves the brain. The brain is where the planning process takes place. To have self-control, you have to know how to plan. Having mental control is about planning for the present moment of the future. Within that present moment, your emotional control will be tested.

 

          What is emotional control? Emotional control involves the heart. The heart is where the embracing of the present moment takes place. To have self-control, you have to know how to be in the present moment. Having emotional control is about living in the present moment because you’ve previously planned to live there. As a result, being in the present moment tests your ability to follow through with your plans subconsciously (because consciously in the present is not in the present). And the planning process comes from mental control.

 

          The strength of both your mental and emotional control will determine the amount of life you take out of life. To take the most out of life, you have to make the best use of your physical control. Physical control is completely active. This is about “doing” work and completing tasks both for the present moment and for the future moment. People with the most physical control live amazing healthy lives. People without a lot of physical control are constantly stuck in a negative spiral of failures. To be stuck in failure is to be unsuccessful. To be unsuccessful is to not live. In order to live, you need self-control.

 

          In conclusion, self-control is determined by physical control. Physical control is directly affected by the strength of both emotional and mental control. Emotional and mental control fluctuates together, because you can’t have them independently. A self-controlled life is a life.
