Why we fail at self-control
- Factors such as negative mood, fatigue and alcohol play a large part in self-control failure.
- Previous effort is one especially well studied factor that decreases self-control. All else being equal, a second self-control attempt after an initial one is more likely to fail than one that comes after a relatively restful period when no self-control was exercised.
