110.Some people believe that nowdays we have too many choices. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

It is argued that
individuals
think that nowadays there are too many options to choose from.
This
essay completely agrees with
this
statement because these days what is important is to do what they like, but
this
can lead to confusion and stress. Nowadays,
people
only follow their hearts and do what they like. In the past,
individuals
were not able to make a lot of
decisions
, since their parents were the ones that made the
decisions
and they had no choice but to accept what they were offered. Now, parents and other
people
respect each other, so let
individuals
make their own
decisions
,
such
as what they want to eat, to study or to wear. Recent research concluded that
people
have approximately 120% more choices than there were in the
last
decades. The main issues of
this
situation are confusion and stress.
This
is because there are products that are very similar, with the same appearance, the only difference could be the material or some changes in the interior of the product.
However
, not every individual understands or knows how to find the differences, so
people
may waste hours investigating why the price of the product is different and which one they should buy. Normally, technical words are used to describe products, which leads to misunderstanding, so
people
get stressed and confused by all the details offered.
For instance
, many technological products
such
as computers, cameras and mobile phones use words which normal
people
may not understand. In conclusion,
people
make many
decisions
because nowadays
individuals
like following their feelings, and
this
may cause pressure and uncertainty when choosing.
