Why do we make decisions we later regret—even when we know better?

In this episode of Reflect and Protect, we explore the Korean principle of Gukkee — self-control. The ability to pause between impulse and action, and choose a response that aligns with our long-term goals rather than short-term emotion.

We look at why self-control often breaks down, how modern life makes it harder than ever, and why the key isn’t more discipline—but greater awareness.

Through practical insights and simple strategies, this episode will help you recognise the moments that matter most, and take back control of your decisions.
