Stand for yourself

Like a muscle, the more you regularly train self-control, the stronger you will become. With increasing self-control, you gain the ability to steer your life in a way that aligns with your true self.
The more your actions align with your thoughts and feelings, the better you feel about yourself and the decisions you make. Every time you feel good about a decision, it boosts your self-esteem and self-confidence. You also reinforce in your mind that you are capable, and it will become easier for you to make similar decisions in life.
