Impulse control

Impulse control is the ability to stop an immediate reaction when it interferes with a long-term goal or value.

Definicja

Impulse control is part of self-regulation and executive function. It allows you to stop the automatic reaction, evaluate the consequences and choose an action that is more consistent with the goal. It is not about the absence of impulses, but about increasing the space between the impulse and the behavior.

Praktyka i życie

When an impulse appears, follow the 90-second procedure: name it, notice it in your body, postpone the reaction and choose the next small step.

Częste błędne rozumienie

It is a mistake to expect the impulses to disappear. The second mistake is testing impulse control in an environment full of triggers.
