Self-Contraint

I find that I need to learn more about self-contraint.. It seems that I lack a little in this department of 'personal development'. Regardless of what I am doing, I am always heavily 'tempted' to deviate from the set plan. For example, if I'm studying, and it's 11:30am, I feel the need to worry about what to have for lunch. Or if I'm in a heated argument with a friend, I would use all possible knowledge to try and prove my point, without having any regards whether those 'proofs' are appropriate in the particular situation.

Perhaps it is part of my personality that I am straight-forward, say what I mean, and mean what I say. I have to be careful though - as this could get me into a lot of trouble.

Maybe it's better if I keep my mouth shut at times.
