When talking about "destination" versus the "journey", some of you are comparing things to experiences. It's been shown that experiences make us happier than things. http://www.livescience.com/culture/p...ce-100304.html http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/02/10...ons/index.html If you're talking about something nonphysical, which is how this thread seemed to start out, then I suppose it's other reasons, like expectations or whatever.

I used to get buyer's remorse on a lot of things, but the things I really truly want and work to have these days are worth it because I chose wisely.

Overconsumption has a lot to do with this phenomenon today. *Be more selective* is my advice to you.

True statement.

If you just wait a week on things you think you want, often you won't want them anymore.
