Self Control is NOT the same as Self-Regulation

Self regulation allows you to have enough energy is your battery to have self control Examples – lack of sleep Burns energy to deal with stress Self control is using our thinking (PFC) to inhibit impulses, to pay attention, do what others want from us. Hard to do if our battery is drained. Self control is a result of being self regulated
