Jesse LIebman discusses how social influences have caused individuals to gravitate towards a materialistic driven lifestyle. Yet, despite what celebrities may showcase, or journal publications may tell us, what we're told doesn't mean we should follow. Too often individuals are roped into desires to help showcase something they believe they need instead of focusing on what brings them true happiness. By focusing on less stuff with quality vs quantity, experiences over items and giving the bird to the social norms, we can individually combat what we're told will make us happy and simply discover and live with joy and peace of mind.
