Looking back, I can see I had this \\u2018I want what I want when I want it\\u2019 mentality in many areas of my life. But now that I\\u2019m in recovery and emotionally mature, I\\u2019m able to see that it had a lot to do with immaturity. I\\u2019m now able to delay my gratification and make life so much easier for myself rather than harder. This week\\u2019s episode 197 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast is about delayed gratification- the antidote to \\u201cI want what I want when I want it.\\u201d

In this episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I\\u2019m sharing a story of the time I overlooked some major red flags and rented a camper van anyway because I wanted to fulfill my plan to go on a 6-week solo road trip. After many calls to mechanics and finally ditching the van, I learned a very valuable lesson about making my life easier by taking time and thinking critically.\\xa0

The secret here is delaying gratification long enough to look at the truth of things. Stop ignoring red flags and ask for help if you don\\u2019t trust your own judgment. At the end of the day, just because you want something doesn\\u2019t mean you should have it.\\xa0

Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.
