What is the Shiny Object Syndrome (SOS) all about? To put it in general terms, it is defined as an attraction to any object that exhibits a ‘glassy’ or ‘shiny’ appearance.
Every single one of us, at some point or another, have had a ‘touch’ of this shiny object attraction. It could have been when you walked passed a store and your eye caught a glimpse of that ‘glittering ring’ or ‘shimmering watch.’ If you actually think about it, it’s all really clever marketing to get you to either ‘enquire more ‘ about the product or end up ‘buying it on impulse.’
