Would you rather have 1 marshmallow now or 2 marshmallows later?
This visual is based off of the Stanford marshmallow experiment of 1972.
I first heard about this in Walter Mischel’s book The Marshmallow Test.
It reflects on the value of delayed gratification.
If you are able to delay your enjoyment of something, you’ll often find that you have more to enjoy.
Not only that, but it's also been s great early indicator of someone's success (based on society's average definition of grades, wealth, etc).
Are you the type of person that would pick 1 now or 2 later?
