Is self-control the secret to success in life? Is it prewired, or can it be taught? Walter Mischel’s groundbreaking marshmallow test—in which children were presented with two marshmallows and given the choice of eating one now, or both later—revealed how will-power can predict everything from higher SAT scores to a greater sense of self-worth. He has just published The Marshmallow Test. Join Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman, author of the bestselling Thinking Fast and Slow, as Professor Mischel shows how the takeaways from his iconic studies can literally change our lives.
