Today’s Reflection
on my Breakup
Today
actually went fairly well as far as avoiding branded products. Perhaps this is
because I cheated on my breakup yesterday and had new determination to do well
today. Yet, I think what is more important is that today I was at home all day.
Being at home and away from the temptations of branded products, fast food
places and seeing what others were eating was, I think, a big help. Also I did
not have any of my friends to pressure me into eating whatever they were eating,
as they often do. It seems, therefore, that there are some social pressures
involved in one’s desire to buy branded foods. Having taken myself away from
such social pressures for a day I found that it was easier to resist consuming
branded products.
I wonder what some other ways, rather than just avoiding
social settings could help one resist buying branded products? If friends,
companies and other institutions offering more non-branded products would this
make it easier?
