One thing I have come to realize is that making decisions on whether to go for your want or need is always a tough decision. We all have this habit of trying to fit someone's life into our life, most times by doing this we neglect what we truly need for what we want and vice versa.
The input might be anything ranging from beliefs to lifestyle, It might be material things, for some might be investments while some are hard drugs and alcohol. We mostly input another life into ours which there is nothing bad but immediately is not working for you just stop. Sometimes we are not even trying to convince ourselves but convince other people what to believe in our wants and needs which we are wrong because we are wired differently.
what is normal to you might be abnormal for another person. What seems to you like attainment for you might look like an obsession to another person. Needs and want are personal and most times you can only know what is good for you but this does not mean you are very correct. when it comes to needs and wants what is facing you is backing another person, and a good example is the food we consume.
Some people believe using all their money to eat is a good thing but it is been proven that food is addictive and it works like drugs addiction people will tell you it is better because it makes you look good but will increase your sugar level and give room for many diseases to attack to you or you add weight and you probably don't like yourself after that but we all choose this but food slowly kills us day after day.
What about those days when people believe saving money in the bank is the best thing time has changed because people prefer investment more these days. So many things we normalize as our needs are not good but if we see somebody that is not doing what general people are doing we criticize them. Most people do well with the people around them to help them analyze what they want or need before making their decision, to see if are obsessed or not, and finally make the right decision.
Needs and want are personal and it is always better to choose what works best for you, nobody is completely wrong or right because there is always risk in everything we do. What we believe is right in your country that people normalize might be wrong in another which can send us to jail likewise our wants and need is based on beliefs and as long as it works for you keep doing your thing.
