Overview
Self-paced study flow — not the projector or class assignment view. Read the pages, then complete the check when you are ready.
The worst time to set a limit is mid-session, when emotion and momentum are high. The best time is now, calm and ahead of the moment. That's pre-commitment: binding your future self with a rule made by your present, clearer self.
This lesson covers how to help students build personal rules that actually hold up under pressure.
