Author John Tierney and Roy Baumeister on Willpower, Self-Control and Success

Description

There are two qualities that correlate with success, says New York Times columnist John Tierney. "One of them is intelligence and the other is self-control. And so far researchers haven't figured out what to do about intelligence, but they have rediscovered how to improve self-control." At this recorded event in New York City's Museum of Sex, Tierney is joined by Roy Baumeister, the Francis Epps Eminent Scholar in psychology at Florida State University and co-author with Tierney of Willpower: Rediscovering the Greatest Human Strength.
