Recently, I taught some of my students the law of diminishing marginal utility. The law states that "the amount of satisfaction (or utility) an individual derives from additional units of a commodity decreases as his consumption of that commodity increases". The more you take a commodity, the lesser the satisfaction you get at a particular time.
This law is well grounded in economics and it has heavy criticism too but I have seen it happen over and over again in my little experience.
Most times, we will have tasted or eaten something so delicious and thinking we want more of it only to realize it was a wrong move, and in reality we are actually full. The satisfaction is no longer satisfaction because we are full.
If you study the law very well, the more you consume, the lesser satisfaction you get till it gets to zero and eventually leads to a negative number.
