I have already traced that in my earlier posts. I'm not sure going around that horn again is going to serve any value.
The same things that "prevent" most of us. I think you would call it "temptation." Some immediate want/need is enticing, or some immediate hurt/discomfort is uncomfortable and we compromise our long-term vision for our short-term gain. So I head downstairs in the night with an upset stomach and want some milk. Wanting to just get back to bed, I grab the jug and swig some milk right out of the gallon instead of getting a glass. Next morning, wife says, "I heard you get up. Not sleeping well?" I tell her I had an upset stomach and wanted some milk. She fixes me with that steely glare and says, "you didn't drink right out of the gallon did you?"
That steely glare is enough to get any man to compromise his moral code...
