RE: Is Steem an Adult Version of the Marshmellow Test?
watching these videos now i want to eat marshmallows. and i am trying to not eat sugar, so if i now go to look for a chocolate i blame you :D
If you delay the gratification of watching television and get your homework done now, then you’ll learn more and get better grades.
If you delay the gratification of buying desserts and chips at the store, then you’ll eat healthier when you get home.
If you delay the gratification of finishing your workout early and put in a few more reps, then you’ll be stronger.
i suck in all of these things, but i somehow managed to not sell any steem.
now my brain somehow connected this to another experiment done with heroin and rats (think it was heroin), more kids would probably not eat the marshmallow if they did not have to stare at it for 15 minutes.
maybe if steem was made more fun for all people would not sell right away.
short version of the experiment:
I just got around to watching that and I've read about that study before. While I dislike the wording of "It's important they have access to..."
It is a great message to all of us to build a lush cage, with friends family and fun!
this was just a quick search of the experiment. if i remember it correctly it was based on hospital medication and also on people in vietnam war. but in essence "good" environment less chance of drug abuse.
