We all have that one thing that we have always wanted.
Not everyone gets what they want. Only the lucky ones do, but there’s a catch. At times we fall for something just because of its face value and don’t research on what’s the true value of that product or service. As a kid, I always wanted that adjustable bed that we see in hospitals. I had no idea that they are for admitted patients. I ended up getting cancer 15 years later and ended up on the same beds for my chemotherapy sessions. I regretted wanting to get that bed. This dark story was just to set the scene straight. Not everyone gets what they want but those who do, don’t always end up liking what they get. In fact, they instantly regretted their choice. And that always happens when you don’t do your research or the purchase decision is based on impulse. Impulse will bankrupt humankind, I am telling you. At least, these people will now realize to do their homework before getting the things they always wanted to get. Unless you are Elon Musk or some rich billionaire, then who cares, just throw it away and move on.

9. This person used to bake as a hobby and ended up starting an entire bakery business that ended up being successful and has been running for 13 years, but the business took away her passion for baking as dealing with customers was hectic. Doing bakery business as a full-time was just not what she wanted to do.
Explore deep into your hobbies before you want to turn one into a career because going back will have bad consequences.

Well, wow! This post puts so much emphasis on how important the process of decision-making is. I mean, you just can’t get something just because you wish to get it. Especially when you are looking for a job or starting your own company or buying a $1000 mattress.
