Rethinking Positivity - Inside the New Science of Motivation with Gabriele Oettingen

The Paradox of Choice - Barry Schwartz on why more is less

Having more choices is good right? Barry Schwartz thinks otherwise. "In his 2004 book The Paradox of Choice , tackles one of the great mysteries of modern life: Why is it that societies of great abundance — where individuals are offered more freedom and choice (personal, professional, material) than ever before — are now witnessing a near-epidemic of depression? Conventional wisdom tells us that greater choice is for the greater good, but Schwartz argues the opposite: He makes a compelling case that the abundance of choice in today's western world is actually making us miserable. " In this episode we explore making choices on: - dating - prioritization - career - eliminating choice - decision making By the end I had a practical framework for making choices in my life and tools to think less about low priorities.
