Too much of a good thing...
in Psychology ·
...True, there is an old saying that too many cooks spoil the broth—and in this case, it often just leads to a massive headache. Personally, I suspect our primary issue lies within ourselves and our own cognitive frameworks. If one finds genuine contentment in simplicity, there is no reason to chase after those absurdly trivial pursuits—I am thinking specifically of those people completely consumed by modern consumerism. At some point, you simply have to establish your priorities; decide what truly warrants your attention and what deserves to be ignored by your brain.
