Defeating Self-Discipline

Time-tested rationalizations for abandoning self-discipline:

Once won't make a difference.

It's only a minor lapse.

You deserve it.

Everybody does it.

You don't want to become a robot.

It will be balanced out elsewhere.

If you're going to lapse, why do it half-way?

That didn't hurt. Why were you worried?

All that self-discipline talk is sort of neurotic.

You can get back on track tomorrow.

Time for another program.
