Why we make bad decisions by Dan Gilbert

Why we make bad decisions

This is a great TED Talk in which Dan Gilbert explains how we (unreliably) calculate the value and the odds of an option when we’re faced with a decision.

The paradox of choice by Barry Schwartz

The Paradox of Choice

In this talk, Barry Schwartz challenges the assumption that freedom equals happiness and relates it to the number of choices we have.

Disclaimer

By any means I think these notes are a substitute of their source, so if you try to learn just from here, you’re going to miss a lot of information.
Nevertheless, if you use them as a way to remember or clarify some ideas, they can be very helpful. At least they are for me and I hope they are for you too!
