This extremely cute experiment goes to the heart of the matter. What matter was that again? Oh well. It’ll put a smile on your face anyway.

First conducted by Walter Mischel at Stanford University In the 1960s, this now famous marshmallow experiment and the follow up study showed that the ability to wait can make you better adjusted and more dependable later in life.

I don’t have a clue about how to go about teaching patience though so, good luck. Let me know if you figure that one out.
