Sometimes it's good to give up the driver's seat

Title:: Sometimes it's good to give up the driver's seat
Speaker:: Baba Shiv
Description:: Over the years, research has shown a counterintuitive fact about human nature: 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.
