How to Have Willpower

Dear Classical Wisdom Reader,

Why is it so hard to say “no”—to temptation, to pressure, to that last cookie (or text, or scroll)? Is willpower a limited resource, or a skill we can train like a muscle? And what can voices from the ancient world teach us about the very modern struggle for self-control?

Join us for a compelling exploration at the intersection of ancient wisdom and contemporary psychology in How to Have Willpower: Ancient Meditations and Modern Psychology on Self-Control. This unique online event invites you to discover how a Greek philosopher and a Christian poet—writing over 1,500 years ago—crafted timeless guides to resisting temptation and reclaiming our agency.

Our panel features a remarkable trio of thinkers:

• Michael Fontaine (Cornell University), whose newest book How to Have Willpower brings ancient voices to life in brilliant, accessible prose;

• Tamar Szabó Gendler (Yale University), a leading philosopher whose work bridges psychology, cognitive science, and imagination; and

• Jeffrey A. Schaler, PhD, a psychologist and author of Addiction Is a Choice, who has spent decades probing the roots of human behavior and freedom.

Whether you're battling procrastination, breaking a habit, or simply seeking insight into how to live better, this conversation will inspire, challenge, and empower.
