THE DANGER OF BELIEVING IN HYPE

There's a big danger in believing in hype. You think that it's the best, you think that it will give success and happiness only to find out that the hype is just an excitement, it's nothing but an illusion, sometimes you will even think that it's a fraud.

Never believe in something that is not proven, it will only disappoint you. While some hypes are also real but most of the are not, most of them are just for marketing strategies.

For example, a brand that is promote well on TV, the commercial says that the brand is so delicious and healthy but when you try it for yourself... your expectations were not mot, you're disappointed. It's lesser than what you're expecting.

Another example is a lottery pick in the NBA, a lot of talks about this player, they said that he is going to be the next Michael Jordan, he is going to be the MVP but when the season started... everyone finds out that he is just a bust.

If you're expecting too much, if you're believing too much in hype... you will get disappointed. You need to find facts that it is proven and will satisfy your expectations. You need to test it to yourself first before fully trusting it.

There are products, people, brands, politicians, ideas, new inventions, promises that will create a lot of hype, they will make you believe, they will give you hope but most of them are just illusion. It will never give you exactly what you need. You will only feel bad because your expectations were not met.

The most logical thing to do is just stick to what is proven, stick to something that has strong track records of producing something great. Don't believe in the new, always trust the old tradition that create a lot of memories of greatness.

But some hypes are also real, the point here is don't believe too much in hypes because it will only make you feel bad if it is not real. It is better to be safe than sorry.

Some hypes that may disappoint you:

1. Exercise machines that promises you results in 2 weeks.
2. A new coffee brand that markets great taste.
3. A young politician that promises to change the world.
4. An investment company that promises to triple your capital in just one month.
5. A new branded shoe that is nothing extraordinary.
6. A new recipe from a fast food company
7. A new reality show that looks very good only to find out that it is full of crap
8. A new cellphone technology
9. A new flavor of noodles
10. A service being offered that promises warranty
11. Insurance companies
12. An aspiring you tuber

You're old enough to believe in hypes, never give our full trust on it, doubt it a little bit so that you will never get disappointed if it didn't meet your expectations. At the end of the day, you will still be the judge if it is real or not. Sometimes it is unreal but it is still making you believe. Open your eyes and accept what is working, accept what is a bust and learn how to walk away from a hype.
