However, this is a mantra that is widely touted by a\npsychology professor. This axiom is a product of a 20-year study spearheaded by\nDr. Thomas Gilovich from Cornell University. The conclusion is concise and to\nthe point, avoid spending money on things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Shouldn\u2019t You Spend Money on Things?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, you\u2019re probably asking\nyourself why you should just agree to a study carried out by someone who has a\nPhD. After all, there are many studies in the past that were proven wrong\neventually. Well, this is not just any academic treatise, it reveals key\ninsights that are experienced in our daily life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three reasons why you\nshould not spend money on things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Eventually,\nyou\u2019ll get used to the new possession and you\u2019ll grow bored. <\/li><li>Human\nwants are insatiable, what seemed like the height, once attained, is now just\nbelow you.<\/li><li>There\u2019s\nalways someone better, with a more appealing object, and you will constantly\ntry to be that person.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why You Should Go for Experiences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The paragraph above only talks\nabout why you should ditch material possessions and it doesn\u2019t offer an\nalternative. In case you\u2019re wondering, we also have an argument for\nexperiences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Experiences\nmake you, not possessions. <\/li><li>There\u2019s\nno point comparing experiences, and even in doing this, the effect is\nintrinsically less significant. <\/li><li>The\nanticipation of the experience is just as thrilling as the experience itself.<\/li><li>Experiences\nare momentary<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s explain some of these\npoints in more detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Experiences Make You, Not Possessions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Which is a more apt description?\n\u201cHere\u2019s Mr. John, he\u2019s climbed the Mount Everest twice, he took a year off to\nlive in Korea, and he is a regular marathon runner.\u201d Or \u201cLook at Mr. James, he\nhas that expensive brown shoe, he got his haircut for $500, and his car was\ncustom-made.\u201d In any case, Mr. John is definitely going to leave a lasting\nimpression and this is because of his peculiar experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buying the latest iPhone won\u2019t\nautomatically change or redefine you, however, partaking in a\nonce-in-a-lifetime experience will.&nbsp;\nAccording to Dr. Gilovich, the experience you have as a person is what\nreally makes you who you are. You are a sum total of your experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comparing Experiences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A study was carried out in\nHarvard and the aim was to see whether people would rather have a high salary\nthat was considerably lower than that of their peers, or a longer vacation that\nwas shorter than their peers. A lot of them weren\u2019t sure about the salary but\nwere absolutely confident in the fact that they would take a long vacation,\nregardless of how it compares with their peers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Anticipation <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It was also observed that what\ncauses extreme excitement was the buildup to the experience. From the planning\nmoment to the period of waiting; it is a thoroughly enjoyable moment that is\ncherished forever. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Experiences Do Not Last Long<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A fleeting moment is not always a\nbad thing. Sometimes, it is exactly what you need to forget a regrettable\ndecision. For instance, picture someone who buys an expensive phone. He uses\nthe phone for 2 months and all of a sudden, he realizes how bad the purchase\nis. According to Gilovich, this is exactly why the fleeting nature of an\nexperience makes it perfect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Experience that Meets Your Need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s likely that you agree with\nthe central idea of buying experiences, but you just don\u2019t see how it applies to\nyou. For instance, you\u2019re not one to just take a trip to the Bahamas, or to\nbegin a rock-climbing expedition. Look around, experiences are all around you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you take an Uber\/Taxify to work, as opposed to jumping from one bus to another, you\u2019re buying an experience. By purchasing a device that helps you easily connect with clients and stay ahead of your competition, you\u2019re espousing experience. Similarly, when you utilize a reliable platform like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.terawork.com\/\">TERAWORK<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.terawork.com\/should-you-hire-freelancers-or-full-time-employees-for-your-startup\/\" class=\"external\">hire the best talent you need<\/a> for your business without stress, outsource tasks and get things done without lifting a finger, you\u2019re demonstrating how experience sells over material possession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The TERAWORK Experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Experience tells us that experience sells better than any other thing. Experience is the driving force behind Uber\u2019s growth, it is the reason behind Apple\u2019s ascension, and most importantly, the experience enjoyed is a factor that propels clients to TERAWORK. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just for your information, TERAWORK is the platform that connects some of the best freelancers from around the world to clients in need of their services. it is the seamless way to hire talent for entrepreneurs all over the world.
