    Because what is right isn't usually what is easy, quick or convenient.

    there's no such thing as right choice, it's only what you think is right, so, what's the difference?

    "Some people want good things today whilst others are prepared to wait until tomorrow or later.

    A big question for anyone is the extent to which they are prepared to wait for big rewards later or will settle for less in the short term. Along with this is the question of the level of discomfort people will put up with in order to gain a later reward.

    Some people have a greater tendency to use delayed gratification as a personal motivation whilst others are more motivated by 'instant gratification' or pleasure now. Those who make greater use of delayed gratification are likely to be more successful in their lives."

    screwing up requires less effort and doing the "right thing" might back fire on you due to peer pressure
