It is often argued that humans are insatiable and always demanding. I will be discussing the positive and negative aspects. On the one hand, the reason why I think that insatiety is a good thing is that, dissatisfaction makes an individual strive to be better. Some individuals feel they are not content with what they have and
this

increases their hunger for improvement.
Furthermore
Linking Words
, people want the best life for their families and loved ones and in order to do so, they work hard and study more to help them secure better jobs.
As a result
Linking Words
, the needs of the family are met and
this
Linking Words
in return, gives the individual a sense of fulfilment.
For example
Linking Words
, I was not satisfied with the income I was receiving at my h previous workplace, because it was not enough to cater for my needs.
Therefore
Linking Words
, I opted out and sought to
further

my education and
this
Linking Words
has helped my career.
Thus
Linking Words
, I have d more degrees and experience and I can now meet my needs.
On the other hand
Linking Words
, dissatisfaction has negative effects. The reason is that insatiability increases a person's greed for more, thereby, making one engage in crime to satisfy their needs.
Besides
Linking Words
, a person who is not satisfied with what he has can involve in criminal activities,
such

as, stealing, killing or coveting.
For instance
Linking Words
, in Bayelsa state, a man was jailed for killing his brother over a piece of land.
Moreover
Linking Words
, the piece of land was said to be the brother's but his greed for more and discontent made him kill his brother.
As a result
Linking Words
, he is serving time in jail. In conclusion,
although
Linking Words
humans are not content and are always demanding, I believe that dissatisfaction triggers an individual's drive for success as well as, lead to negative life choices and impact.
