Can you resist the temptation of a marshmallow?

Tell a 4-year old kid not to eat the marshmallow for 15 min. Then shut the door and leave the room.
one-third of the kids eat the marshmallow right away.
another third eat it w/in the next 14 min.
less than one-third can resist.

These kids, after they grow up, are those who "succeed" academically and in jobs coz they can self-control, delay of instant gratification....

Friends, try it on your kids and let me know the result!!!
