Joachim De Posada Talks About Delayed Gratification
grrlscientist writes "Here is a short talk in which Joachim de Posada shares a landmark experiment on delayed gratification — and how it can predict future success. With priceless video of kids trying their hardest not to eat their marshmallow."
The question now becomes: Can you teach this concept of self discipline to kids or are they born with it? To say that the kid who eats the marshmallow won't be successful is a bit misleading. I know for a fact that I would have eaten the marshmallow at that age. However, I was a 'B' student in school, I have a good career and a loving family. I don't live pay check to pay check. I would say I have succeeded in life.
if niggers keep producing bastard children factory-style who are raised by big fat bitchy-ass single moms on welfare who somehow think they're hot then you might think it can't be taught. you'd be wrong. then again SOMEBODY keeps knocking up those big fat sows so they're never gonna stop thinking they're hot. damn.
Yeah, the dude is a beaner, not a nigger. Everything else you said still applies however.
