Instant gratification is all over in this world, from sweets to drinks, facebook, fast food and porn and the large commercial companies know it. That's why they use highly powerful psychological phrases to lure people in becoming their clients and bury them into a never ending instant gratification vortex. It's human psychology and they know how to play it.
Great post by the way.

It is why we are also falling behind in the historical technological curve.
People are building applications that can make them billionaires overnight as opposed to working onto something that is sustained for a long time.
We need people to put off that gratification and think long term about things.

So true. Companies are playing the psychological game and they are defeating the average customer who is unaware of the rules.
I watched Social Dilemma on Netflix. It is scary how "content" is being pushed to get users to spend hours on any given platform and how it is being used to make behavioral modifications.
