This feeling can be especially strong after buying things like cars, expensive gadgets, or luxury items, where the cost is high and expectations are too.
At its core, buyer’s remorse is a clash between desire and logic.
So, What Is The Way Forward?
There is absolutely nothing wrong with what you bought. Once you have acquired it, be comfortable with what you have. I would advise that you shouldn’t overthink it, you have done what you have to and the choice is yours after all, so be an adult and accept it.
Also, I would state that the primary reason people often suffer from buyer’s remorse is due to a lack of cash. That is, sometimes, the buyer has to make a decision between buying an outfit or paying for a course on Cybersecurity or product management- more or less, short-term happiness vs long-term achievement. The choice is yours.
In conclusion, the only reasonable way to overcome buyer’s remorse is by acquiring what is within your budget, and also, you should endeavor to increase your earning capacity so that you can acquire some of the materials that your heart genuinely desires.
In the meantime, enjoy what you have and do the little things that make you happy.
