Daniel Goleman did a popular study in the 1960's on deferred gratification finding that four-year-olds that managed to wait 20 minutes for 2 marshmallows instead of 1 did better in all areas of life than children that chose to eat 1 without waiting. In other words, the most correlative trait to success is the ability to wait for good things because it is the foundation for a dozen other positive character traits.
In light of this discovery let me ask you an icebreaker question I love: If you had to scrimp and save on every expense from your house to your shoes, but could have ONE item to COMPLETELY indulge, what would it be?
Kyra: Home Furnishings
Oli: Travel
