The Art of Choosing..Interesting

I had done a post about choices and the TED talk by Dr. Barry Schwartz (Paradox of Choice) showing us that a wealth of choices could very well depress us instead of freeing/empowering us.

Along the same line is this TED talk by Sheena Iyengar on the Art of Choosing.

About the talk: 

Sheena Iyengar studies how we make choices -- and how we feel about the choices we make. At TEDGlobal, she talks about both trivial choices (Coke v. Pepsi) and profound ones, and shares her groundbreaking research that has uncovered some surprising attitudes about our decisions.

Hope you Enjoy.

P.S: The TED website has some interesting features like Interactive Transcript. Do take a gander.

Choices..Damned if we Choose....Damned if we dont (Funny and Interesting)

Damned if we choose one or the other. This, by the way reminds me of a wonderful TED talk by Dr. Barry Schwartz about the choices we make in life. This talk is titled "The Paradox of Choice" He finds that a wealth of can make us not happier but more dissatisfied, not free but paralyzed. Counter intuitive, but gripping talk.
