add more clarification

| May 16, 2019 at 14:47 | comment | added | Wuschelbeutel Kartoffelhuhn | @Fizz That's a great suggestion. From a strategical lens (long-term), I have no doubt that consistent self-image, reduced fear and many other neuroplastic benefits from repeated exposure to the task will increase subsequent commitment. There is also work that claims that willpower can be trained like a muscle over time, but this has recently come into question with the reproducibility movement (perhaps it even started it). My intent with the question was more in the direction of tactical (short-term) cognitive or behavioral interventions. | |
