Marshmallows and Maturity

Some time ago I summarized the 'marshmallow test' with the staff at work as it fit very nicely with our vision to develop the emotional intelligence of our students. It led to some interesting discussions at work.

Yesterday I came across this video on TED.com, one of my favorite sites. I have the TED app on my iPod and once a week or so check in and check out their newest videos. This short one was a very engaging summary of the 'marshmallow test'.....and it fits so well when talking about the current credit crisis so many people find themselves in right now....
