The so-called "scarcity" refers to a state of feeling that "has" less than "need". The benefit that scarcity can produce when it captures the brain is the "concentration bonus"; the downside is the "observation burden". <br>Focus on dividends: Scarcity will automatically push factors such as interference and temptation aside, allowing us to do things that are difficult to accomplish by ourselves. <br>Restricted View: Focusing on one thing means that we will ignore other things, also called "tunnel vision". <br>Restricted view burden: The mental burden and adverse effects caused by the failure to evaluate the costs and benefits of the restricted view mentality. <br>In addition, the scarcity mentality will increase the body's cortisol, which will greatly reduce its planning ability, anti-risk ability, and ability to delay gratification. <br>These capabilities have a general term, bandwidth. <br>Bandwidth: refers to the capacity of the mind, including cognitive ability and executive control. Scarcity mentality will reduce bandwidth capacity, resulting in people's lack of insight and foresight, and will also weaken executive control. <br>Simply put, <br>scarcity makes people dumb and more impulsive. <br>When a bandwidth burden is formed, scarce people are prone to borrowing behavior. <br>Scarcity causes borrowing burdens, which will exacerbate "poverty." Because scarcity will cause us to have current prejudices, make us take future benefits as a price, and overestimate immediate benefits. Therefore, the scarcity mentality affects poverty, and the excessive scarcity mentality will turn poverty into a bottomless pit, making the poor poorer and poorer. This may also trigger their deformed consumer outlook. For example, instead of investing in yourself and learning how to make money, you are going to overdraft your savings to buy luxury goods, TV dramas, and hold funerals to satisfy your current desires, regardless of consumption and life crises.
