3 quotes from Scarcity

  • "Scarcity captures the mind. It focuses your attention, but at the same time, it can create a tunnel vision that blinds you to other important aspects of life."
  • "When you feel your resources are limited, you tend to restrain your thinking and make decisions more focused on the immediate rather than the long-term outcomes."
  • "Thinking about scarcity makes us forget about the abundance we often take for granted, reducing our mental bandwidth and impacting our judgment."
