It’s very true. Manipulating your own motivation when reward is sooo easy to access is a pain in the butt. I always feel like I’m punishing myself when I deny. Then, I tell myself “if you need it today, you’ll need it tomorrow…what’s the healthy equivalent (of thing)?” So I get a little treat. Just not a cookie. :(
