Self-control - why it isn't always easy and tips to improve it quickly

About this episode

I struggle with this myself and am grateful to one of my listeners for suggesting it as a topic.


In this episode I look at the reasons why some people seem to do this with ease and others seem to find

it much harder and tools that can help us make it easier.
