That's where the under rated human invention called "guilt" comes handy. I feel guilty even before I do something stupid!
Most people lie to themselves until they are convinced they do not want it, then catastrophically implode years later as the culmination of their restraints rot them from within.
I can't offer much advice, as I usually just coldly rationalize which is most beneficial and chose that path with little difficulty or regret. Not many people can be that decisive.
