B. C. FORBES

You've probably heard of the legendary marshmallow test, in which psychologist Walter Mischel found that children who could show self-restraint would be more successful in life than those who couldn't. They were the ones who could hold off on the chance to have one marshmallow immediately in order to get two sweet n' squishy treats later. Kids who couldn't wait, and who would forfeit the chance for an extra marshmallow, would go on to be less successful in school, at work and in life.
