The What-The-Hell Effect
It's the cycle where you indulge but then regret what you've done but you keep going back for more. Your brain tries to justifies the actions you take by saying "Hey, you've already done it so why not just finish the entire thing?"
The phrase was coined by dieting researchers but it can affect one's willpower during setbacks or challenges.

From Guilt to Compassion
When we enter in the cycle of the What The Hell effect, we often put blame on ourselves and act harshly towards ourselves which makes us feel guilty, ashamed, and embarrassed during our relapse stages. If this is you, then it has been suggested that instead of getting angry at yourself try to show compassion instead.
More self-criticism helps no one. Indulging is not a crime and it is important to forgive yourself so that you won't completely be consumed by guilt.

What You Should Do During Setbacks
- Slow down and check-in with yourself. Are you angry at yourself? Why? Try to be more understanding of yourself instead of spiraling into negativity.
- Normalize taking a step backward. Setbacks are a part of life.
- Think about what you would do if your friend came to you with the same problem you have. Would you throw criticism onto your friend? Would you approach them the same way you treat yourself?

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
