Why Delaying Gratification!

Because Delaying gratification is "a process of scheduling the pain and pleasure of life in such a way as to enhance the pleasure by meeting and experiencing the pain first and getting it over with." In other words, when one is faced with two alternatives, one should deal with the painful one first and then enjoy the pleasurable one. This was first propounded by M. Scott Peck in his bestseller "The Road Less Travelled" (ill return the book to you one day Aakash), for some reason the name struck me then and was the first thing i could think of to name my blog. To some extent i also agree with him. Though, this is one of the four tools for discipline according to him. The other three are (2) acceptance of responsibility, (3) dedication to truth, and (4) balance. If these approaches are used to confront pain or difficulty, the end result is personal growth.

Also because i delayed starting this blog by a year and a half ;)
