About this listen

Willpower can be helpful, but relying on it too much can wear you out. A professor from the University of Toronto suggests a more empowering approach: instead of just resisting temptations, try shifting your mindset by embracing a new identity—like saying, “That’s not who I am” or “That’s not my kind of food.” This simple change can make healthy choices feel more natural. Reminder: seeking guidance from God can provide strength and support on your journey of personal growth.
