Is there anything self regulation doesn't change? 

Areas self regulation is important in:

• academics- learning to keep track of assignments, work when unwilling, turn things in on time, and keep up concentration through a class, semester, and college education
• health- eating, exercising, sleeping the right amounts
• relationships/manners- censoring thoughts from being spoken, regulating the proper amount of communication and socialization, developing closeness at a normal pace
• spirituality/faith- regulating amount of energy spent on figuring out "big questions"
• leisure time- controlling amount of time spent, refraining from harmful hobbies
