The Importance of Self-Control Over Self-Esteem
The self esteem movement has directly contributed to the most miserable, directionless, and least wise generation in history. -
Culture glorifies bad habits under the guise of “be yourself” and “follow your heart” and “if it feels good do it” but nothing could be further from the truth. How you feel about something doesn’t determine it’s morality, and often times this mentality leaves people in a directionless rut later down the road. -
Instead of pushing self esteem we should teach self control. The more you resist things that may be instantaneously pleasurable but have long term negative effects, the better off you’ll be. The goal should never be to justify bad habits because you are being yourself, rather it should be to learn self control so you can avoid the pain of consequence in the future. -
Be blessed and stay stoked 😎🤙 -
