    never make unconscious purchase decisions. Consciously set a list of what you want, and follow it.

    Yes, but how do you become aware of product you consciously want?

      By concatenating words describing concepts I’d like to have together. For example:

      • Foldable rechargeable lightweight flying exoskeleton
      • Cheap quiet fan that fits in my window while moving as much air as possible
      • Waterproof lightweight summer footwear
      • Non-addictive method to instantly fall asleep
      • Low sugar cheesecake
      • Small and cheap dynamometric drill adapter adjustable for 0 to 500Nm

      …and so on. Just use your imagination.
