...wants is the basis of all economic activity in a society. All desires, tastes and motives of human beings are called wants in economics. 1. 2. 3. 4. Wants may arise due to elementary and psychological causes. The wants for food, clothing and housing are elementary and psychological. Wants may arise due to social causes. As members of society, we may require a particular type of dress and food. Wants arise due to customs and habits like drinking tea and chewing. Wants may arise due to advertisements. In the early stages of civilisation, wants of men were few and simple. With advancement of civilisation, wants have become unlimited and also complex. Man tries to satisfy most of his wants through economic activity. Since the resources are limited, he has to choose between urgent wants and not so urgent wants. A systematic survey of this process is called consumption. Consumption means using up of goods and services in the satisfaction of human wants. The economics of consumption is related to a study of nature of wants and the behaviour of demand. Characteristics of wants 1. 2. Wants are unlimited: Man is a bundle of desires. There is no limit to human wants. If one set of wants are fulfilled, immediately another set of wants would be felt. Even the richest man will have a list of wants to be fulfilled. Every want is satiable: wants in general are unlimited. But a single or a particular want is satiable. We can completely satisfy...

...A Supernatural Perspective TODAY’S SCRIPTURE “...I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland” (Isaiah 43:19, NIV) TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria So often, people limit themselves in their thinking. They don’t think they’ll ever accomplish their dreams. They start thinking they don’t have the talent, the connections or the funds. They don’t think a marriage could ever be restored or they’ll ever get out of debt. But that kind of thinking comes from looking at things in the natural. That’s a limited perspective. We have to realize that God is a supernatural God. And just because we don’t see a way doesn’t mean that God doesn’t have a way. God can bring one opportunity across your path that will thrust you to a new level. He has explosive blessings that can blast you out of debt and into abundance! He can do what medical science can’t do! Today, I encourage you to take the limits off your thinking. Lift up your eyes to Jesus, the Author and Finisher of your faith. Trust that He is working behind the scenes on your behalf, and He will make a way out of no way. Remember, what you are facing may seem impossible with man, but when God puts His “super” on your “natural,” anything is possible! A PRAYER FOR TODAY Father God, thank You for Your hand of blessing on my life. Help me to take the limits off my thoughts and see with a supernatural perspective. Today, I choose to lift up my eyes to You, Jesus, the Author and Finisher of my faith. In Jesus’...

...when my little four year old nephew starts making noise at home, my sister give him the iPad to play with games so he can quiet up. He likes to play video games and watch videos from YouTube. If my sister doesn’t give him the iPad he would make a lot of noise which is not good for neighborhoods around us. I think my sister should find a different way to stop him from making noise not just by handing him the iPad. However, parents should have big role to prevent their children from using screens for entertainment. Children should be more focused on education. The author makes a great point that young kids shouldn’t be given smartphones to keep them quiet. Another problem in today’s society for kids is multitasking. Multitasking should be limited while studying because it can bring distraction. Although, lately I have noticed that when I start to study while I have my phone next to me, it takes more time for me to finish that task than when I have my phone...
