My parents taught me to react quickly when temptation comes and to say 'No!' instantly and emphatically. I recommend that same counsel to you. Avoid temptations.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Every time I say 'no' to a small temptation, I strengthen my will to say 'no' to a greater one.
I generally avoid temptation unless I can't resist it.
One of the important things about temptation is, if I'm going to deal with it I'm going to have to recognize, this is an area of weakness in my life. I have been tempted here before and before and before.
Lead me not into temptation; I can find the way myself.
I never resist temptation, because I have found that things that are bad for me do not tempt me.
Why resist temptation? There will always be more.
What makes resisting temptation difficult for many people is they don't want to discourage it completely.
The most important lesson I've learned in this business is how to say no. I have said no to a lot of temptations, and I am glad I did.
The only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it... I can resist everything but temptation.
Do not worry about avoiding temptation. As you grow older it will avoid you.
