A significant feature of the human condition is that it is not at all clear how to live life, yet something must be tried. Some of the efforts add to successful, satisfying lives, while others lead to dead ends, frustrated hopes, and wasted resources. My fascination with this feature of the human condition has led me to the study of self-regulation: what people do, try to do, and are able to do to improve the quality of their lives.
