You should borrow some from me. I have far too much self control regarding Pokemon. Although not in the usual sense.
When I was seven, I drew a Charmander picture (which I mentioned in the other post), had it framed and hung it over my bed. I made a promise to the picture (that sounds rather odd, writing it down) that I would never take it down. My sister pointed out that was a bit extreme promise, so I instead said that for as long as I kept a childlike demeanour, and didn't (mentally) grow old and cynical, I would keep it hanging over my bed.
So I can't take it down. It would be saying that I've abandoned all my seven year old self loved. And I can't do that. I'm morally bound by promises I made 13 years ago, to a picture.
Even when I moved, I took the it with me and hung it up over my new bed.
Having written it down, I'm not sure if that's really having a lot of a very strange self-control, or if it's having none at all. Either way, I'm very glad I never took down the picture. It's a nice picture, and if I'm ever down, it's a nice remember of where I'm from and where I'm going.
I wrote this on my phone, and so I managed to get it (slightly) under a thousand words! I'm awed at my own self-control.
