Hidden Brain · Winning the Battle Against Yourself · 8 Sep 2025 podcast

What happened was that evening we went out to dinner with my grandma Bev and there's a diner in her building called Little Pete's.

And we went there and had what my kids considered to be probably the ideal meal, including things like, you know, a griddled grilled cheese and waffles and things that you get at a diner.

And at dessert time, the kids said they wanted a milkshake.

And my kid Emmett asked the waiter, how big is the milkshake?

And the waiter said, it's pretty big.

And so I said, why don't you guys split the milkshake?

So they agreed to that deal.

And the waiter brought out two fairly sizable glasses full of milkshake.

which I assumed was half in each glass.

But no, he also had one of those large metal containers like you get at a soda fountain, and he handed it to me, and that contained just as much milkshake.

So he gave me this enormous milkshake, and basically, what was I going to do, right?

Like, I didn't want to sugar my kids up anymore.

milkshakes are delicious so despite the fact that directly before coming to this dinner I had just said to Brett and my kids I am not going to eat any more sugar today I am just going to detox and eat all the green vegetables and feel amazing later I proceeded to polish off the entire rest of that milkshake

Yeah, I mean, that's certainly something that I said verbally at the table.

I mean, Brett did remind me of the resolution that I had made earlier to be kind to my body and not totally poison myself with large amounts of sugar.

And I had a milkshake in my hand, and I said, well, I have a milkshake, and it looks delicious.

So that was a pretty good argument.

Exactly.

And this happens in all different parts of our lives.

It happens with work projects that maybe we wish we had gotten to invest in a little bit more or school projects if we're still in school.
