What happens when you resist the urge to be rewarded,
knowing you’ll get a bigger reward later?
When you realize you have the ability to stray from the masses
who easily fall for temptation,
You unlock an extraordinary trait.
When we don’t get what we want,
We lower our expectations.
Depression can manifest.
Imagine being at work
and realizing you misplaced your wallet.
You can assume you forgot it at home,
But there’s no way of knowing.
Most people would become hysterical
And believe it’s gone for good.
They might even leave work to go back and get it.
However,
You can have faith and understand
There’s a possibility it’ll be waiting for you at home.
It’s happened to me occasionally
where I found my wallet lodged between my bed and nightstand.
See the bigger, gratified picture when you wait.
