Title:
Sometimes it's good to give up the driver's seat | Baba Shiv | TEDxStanford
Description:

Over the years, research has shown a counterintuitive fact about human nature: That sometimes, having too much choice makes us less happy. This may even be true when it comes to medical treatment. Baba Shiv shares a fascinating study that measures why choice opens the door to doubt, and suggests that ceding control -- especially on life-or-death decisions -- may be the best thing for us.

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences.
