Patient modules know they will not necessarily be able to inhibit impatient modules. Our brain is an effort monitor: Willpower debunk — the mind is an information processing device not a hydraulic machine that runs out of water pressure. Changes in complex behaviour are due to changes in information processing. Different modules are used for action and speaking, which leads to hypocrisy: Condemnation and conscience are caused by different modules, it is no wonder that speech and action often conflict.
