Scarcity: what this star will be

Scarcity is a star on the Constellate sky: placed by meaning, named, and connected to the stars around it. This is the short form of its post: the line it carries, the area we colour Psychology, and what stands beside it today.

The line it carries on the sky: What is about to become unavailable suddenly seems worth more.

What stands beside it

The stars nearest to it are Commitment and Consistency, The Framing Effect, Hyperbolic Discounting and Loss Aversion, and Loss Aversion is already open to walk. When Scarcity opens, the conversation will land it among them, with a line drawn to each idea it touches.

Ask for this star

Every star is lit by demand. Ask for Scarcity and it moves up the list; when it opens, this post becomes the full essay. The open stars beside it can be walked today, and the first concept of every course is free.
