If just before this video, you watch the ted talk about "Sleep is your superpower" and "a simple way to break and habit", you probably also saw that philrypz post and you got motivated to change. Good for you ! You are on the right track! I pray for a total change in your life and a restoration of what was lost. May you be able to succeed in all the aspect of your life and go even further beyond your goal! Eager to hear about your success 👊
I watched this video three times. Yes, three times! Professor Lyengar is so attractive, so eloquent, and so full of knowledge and wisdom. What a combination! The fact that she is blind only makes me respect her more.
I live in Japan, have for over a decade, and have experienced the same attitudes for Yearrrrs! The first two minutes are SO TRUE!! The Japanese do NOT allow for choice! What a brilliant opening!! :) Thumbs up!!
It’s strange that I am watching this after 15 years since this video was posted on RUclips and I am glad that I watched it and listened to what she had to say. What a beautiful person, what awesome diction and perspective and definitely a person who made a difference in the way we perceive our world.
The ability to choose is the very essence of individuality and free will, along with the attendant ownership and responsibility for the consequneces of choice. Choice enables learning, growth, the acquisition of knowledge, and the empowerment of the individual.
I love it. Very insightful story that is also very entertaining, almost effortlessly. I know that when I am presented with too many choices, I get nervous and tend to make worse choices. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one.
I'm glad I was born to live in the United States of America with the choices and independence available. We had an Indian programmer right off plane from India come to work for us in 90s. At the grocery store he was completely overwhelmed and said "Too many choices". After being here awhile he loved all the options available and chose to stay in the United States vs go back to India. And... one can choose to not take all the options. That is a choice. I'd rather have that than the opposite.
I was very interested in her comments about eastern Europeans. I've been to Hungary in 1989 and again in 2007. The second time things were obviously very different, and most people I spoke to were very positive about the changes (this was before Orban). The one dissenting voice was the cab driver who took me to the airport. He said under the old system he knew his place in society and at work. The uncertainty under the new system was very stressful to him.
This is one of the best TED talks I watched. Refreshing, original, thought provoking. Brilliant and charismatic speaker. Loved her sense of humor. Thank you, Sheena! :)
This is one of my favorite TED talks, very insightful, but I feel there's a bit of a logical fallacy in her assumption that all Westerners make choices based on their own preferences. Many people make choices (both big and small) based on what friends and/or family think.
Having choice is having responsibility. It gives the potential to act with true intentionality. With choice one can go bigger and fall further. Its unreasonable to blame someone else for ones problems when one is empowered to choose as the sole responsibility rests with chooser. As to society and its role, when one makes poor choices that do impact the whole there are negative ramifications for the one who has been granted the authority to choose and the whole whom that persons choices affect.
This talk gave me a unique perspective of choice, as I was one of the people who believed that choice is exclusively an independent decision. Very interesting and educational!
it's is the sign of a strong mind if one is able to make decisions without regret or fear of failure. that's the kind of person that welcomes a challenge. . all challenges starts with a decision. Thinking outside the box results in surprising advancements. Sticking to the collectivist, tried and true grants stability but punishes with boredom .
This explains a lot as to why I often struggle in making decisions. Sometimes It is hard to decide the right thing to do with so many choices and I try to make choices on what I think will help others only to have someone say "Why didn't you do what you wanted". What I want isn't always best for everyone. If we consulted with others and took the good of everyone into consideration, our choices would be more collective and community minded. We would actually be happier with ourselves.
Nice speech! Personally I think that this really assembles the worldwide situation right now. The availability of choice does benefit humanity as it spurs innovation and creativity. Consumers' wants drive the producers to come up with new products, new products turn into revenue, revenue to income which will drive another round of the process... And I believe that this is the reason for the success of America, from its industrialization to all the various technologies.
At 20:00 she completely contradicts herself. At this point she says that we should learn to embrace the vast array of choice preferences, not just assuming that everyone likes many different choices, but this is at odds with her main message that we should accept that some people and cultures don't like having too many choices to choose between.
Well, I was born in Europe and grew up there for 23 years before moving to the US. I can fully understand why the eastern Europeans viewed seven different sodas as just one option. We Europeans see sodas as the bubbly, too sweet stuff that is bad for you. Majority of us don't care how they taste, they are just bad for you and you don't touch the stuff. That's why the sodas were viewed as just one option. When she added water and juice, then they had three options.
She has a Doctorates on the research topic of how individuals approach choice, the subject matter she's speaking about here . She's an actual professor of a Ivy league college, and has credentials far beyond teaching a kindergarten class.
Her point? There are many points raised, but from my perspective the central message is that we should be more open minded about the effects (both positive and negative) that choice can have on us. Having choice can be an expression of freedom, but when our choices become overwhelming they can leave us feeling trapped. The talk is about developing a more healthy attitude towards choice. This is just what I picked up from the talk, you may have a different opinion.
Individual humans have ALWAYS been the ones to decide what happens to their offspring, just like every other animal does. To say that this is a new, learned, or negative thing... is mind blowing. To give the state, or other authority figures control over your body or over your children.... to chose to give them life and death power over you - is new, learned, and negative.
Had the honor of taking her "Think Bigger" class at Columbia for my masters degree and it was such a unique experience that greatly expanded my mind. What a treasure!
I was excited about this topic for the first five minutes; I still am, but there are so many problems with Sheena's conclusions, i don't know where to start.
I really think NOW is the crucial time people attend and this learn the skills. We now can't differentiate fake/true news, we rely too much on how we feels & make too much assumptions
I think one of the reasons (though not the only reason) why the parents would not have wanted the doctor to make the decision for them, is because giving up that power of choice would itself be a choice, in which case, they'd be forced to wonder "what if" THEY had made the choice. Also, I think that the paralyzing effect of choice when it comes to finances or health care come from the complexity of the subject matter. People have no trouble choosing between things that are easy to understand.
I'm a bit late to the party, but I agree. Another point I thought of is where would we draw the line here? If we let doctors make these choices for us about whether our child lives one day or one month, then how long until the choice is between putting a child off life support or having a child with a mental disorder? I'd rather know it was me who made a choice and struggle with that choice than knowing after the fact that the choice was made for me. I'm Swedish by the way so I guess I can't be "accused" of belonging to the american culture group.
Interesting, I'm an American living in Australia and I find the lack of choice frustrating and suffocating, as though I'm being told what to like. Gets you thinking.
I took out your book from my local library and was intrigued by the title and as I was reading I was curious about your demeanor and opened up you tube and was not disappointed💫Thank you for relaying you’re research ~
Let me say how much I respect her.---What is not addressed is the dangers of "collective think." How easily Ms. Iyengar, applauds the idea of Asian kids doing better because of a commitment to community expectations as opposed to the failures of individual choice posed by the "Western model." Could it not be that the difference in performance is directly related to the destruction of our most basic societal group, the family?
Despite the many factors that can influence our choices, we ultimately have the power to decide what we do… this power gives us sense of self determination
Interesting video. I see a couple problems, though. 1. Is the problem individual choice, or an overwhelm of choice? It seems like there are two preimses in one argument. 2. Is the problem that individual choice and/or an overwhelm of choice, or that people do not know how to properly make choices? In other words, should we be reducing choices, collective choices, or learning how to make better individual choices?
@spankthamunkey War is not always fought over resources. Resource issues are not a prerequisite for starting a war. Such an explanation denotes a very simplistic understanding of interstate and intrastate relations. Wars are fought for many different reasons, and while the causes of some wars can be partly explained by a resource issue it is an inadequate explanation.
a)When I went to US, I never went to MaC, but went to SUBWAY. I enjoied limitless choice. I never leave without sandwich. I was impressed turky meat and tuna always. She must also enjoy Subway choice. b) Buy and read her marketing bible book of “Jam law” and make sure by yourself. Even kids can understand “Jam law” is FAKE and they cry “Place the 4 kinds best seller jams”. Kids are honest. Adult like you change the feeling like “I must be wrong”..
She is a person of repute and has established herself well, in spite of her blindness and is successful professionally and personally (got married and has a boy too!) why to even pass worthless comments? Why not we appreciate what she has to share with us? Her insights are amazing...you just can't bullshit on a TED forum...
@HumanistWikitopian I hear what you're saying, but we still want to be the ones who choose whether or not to ask for advice, who to seek advice from, how much weight to give to the advice we're give, or whether to ignore that advice entirely. At time we may give up our choice to someone else, either because we simply don't care, or because we don't want the responsibility that comes along with a possible wrong choice. In such a case, we want to choose whether or not we are the ones to choose.
Choice is the global 'way of the future' like it or not. We have access to more and more information...the constraint is our willpower and time to sift through it all. Some people don't like choice...because it requires you to take responsibility for your actions, and to build good decision-making skills. But those skills are also vital for entrepreneurship and leadership, so what's the problem with building them?
Nice one. I just watched this TED talk: Dan Gilbert: Why are we happy? Why aren't we happy? Which seems to be in a similar field. However it doesnt include cultural differences, it does refer to people with alzheimers.
Hi Malinyc. She an S.T. Lee Professor of Business in the Management Division at Columbia Business School and the Director of the Global Leadership Matrix initiative. She went to Stanford and University of Pennsylvania. I would have been so lucky if she taught me at kindergarten though :)
I don't know about You All but this lecture really moved me, and I am grateful for the observations work and thought that went into this [G*D Bless] and thank you @TED
Most of this talk has to do with cross cultural difference, and collectivist v, individualistic cultures. Being a 3rd culture kid, I feel like she spent the whole time opening up a theme so common to us (those who have been in both types of cultures), but not much further. But it's a crucial concept.
We Japanese have a custom to drink cold green tea with sugar in summer. Some restaurants have it. But not many, I think. And most restaurants in Japan serve green tea to all customers for free. So you have to order something else other than tea!
@tessb I think you have a valid point - if you are really interested in the research data that backs up the anecdotes, you should give her book a read. I was surprised to see how different the book was when compared to this talk!
Communities divide themselves from others based on cultural values just as individuals do, it's just a different scale of the same dynamic. Independence from "other" operates in the choices of both the individual and the cultural community.
This is a good presentation, but its nothing compared to Barry Schwartz's "The PAradox of Choice" which is available through TED. It is sheer intellectual brilliance.
@stampyvanhalen She is blind, she speaks slowly and carefully because she is read her speech with her fingers. The mind reads faster than the hand for regular people, but because she is blind she is reading and speaking at the pace of her hand. Anyway, its the content that matters. This was a great well researched and wonderfully presented with humor speech.
If just before this video, you watch the ted talk about "Sleep is your superpower" and "a simple way to break and habit", you probably also saw that philrypz post and you got motivated to change.

I couldn't stop but just smile, apparently I am one of those following that thread by philrypz
You sir or ma'am have got a really sharp mind. Thank You!
I have been fortunate and privileged enough to have been her student..
same!
who asked
She has a very open mind and an international perspective..
very refreshing
Seeing this in 2023. So beautiful. Audience looks captivated by her talk!
Sheena is so Calm and Clear while delivering the thoughts and her past experiences.I am very much Delighted with this TED TALK.
I watched this video three times. Yes, three times! Professor Lyengar is so attractive, so eloquent, and so full of knowledge and wisdom. What a combination! The fact that she is blind only makes me respect her more.
Only three??? I watched it at least 20 times. loved it
This woman is absolutely mesmerizing.
I'm halfway through her book, and so far it has done an amazing job at opening my eyes on the way I live my life and why I choose what I choose.
Which book
I live in Japan, have for over a decade, and have experienced the same attitudes for Yearrrrs! The first two minutes are SO TRUE!! The Japanese do NOT allow for choice! What a brilliant opening!! :) Thumbs up!!
She's one of the best speakers i've seen so far on TED. So calm and articulate. Thanks for the message. It was beautiful.

The ability to choose is the very essence of individuality and free will, along with the attendant ownership and responsibility for the consequneces of choice. Choice enables learning, growth, the acquisition of knowledge, and the empowerment of the individual.
This just shows that there is a balance to everything. No choice is just as bad as too many choices!!!
Just absolutely fell in love of how insightful and intriguing the entire speech was. Kudos to @Sheena Iyengar
who else watching it in 2024 and still impressed by what she said about choices
I love it. Very insightful story that is also very entertaining, almost effortlessly. I know that when I am presented with too many choices, I get nervous and tend to make worse choices. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one.

+Svalbardea
you are wrong in
"embrace the vast array of choice preferences" means no need to judge or choose one preference

Bravo! She is so impressive in her presentation of her knowledge . I'm taken by her demeanor.

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! I tip my hat to you Ms. Iyengar.
"Freedom of choice is what you got. Freedom from choice is what you want." Freedom of Choice - DEVO
Off topic but, For the first time in my life, I saw a Rolex ad.
Had the honor of taking her "Think Bigger" class at Columbia for my masters degree and it was such a unique experience that greatly expanded my mind. What a treasure!

@cooperbep3 Me too only noticed it when they show that she was reading braille from the sheet.
Recomendo o ted talk da Sheena Iyenga: a arte de escolher
This presentation is a gift to the Internet. My world view has expanded from watching it.
Wow, Sheena Iyengar is smart, articulate and persuasive! What an illuminating, well-delivered talk on choice and choosing!
I think one of the reasons (though not the only reason) why the parents would not have wanted the doctor to make the decision for them, is because giving up that power of choice would itself be a choice, in which case, they'd be forced to wonder "what if" THEY had made the choice.

didnt know she was blind, till they shows the braille paper

Thank you for also supporting the library!
"Of course, you and I know that coke is the better choice."
This is a gem. I'm glad they recorded this.
What she said in the last experience of herself was adorable and glamorous as well! Nothing is sexier than being original!
this woman is blind.... and she did all this spectacular job researching... Respect..
The woman gives an thought-provoking talk, and the first thing they ask her about is her blindness? It's a shame.
your's is an interesting comment, but the fact remains that she does have a unique perspective, and she had a great answer.
The way she reacts to the question about her blindness is amazing!!
When I walk down the cereal Isle at the local supermarket, I get to choose which nutritionally devoid breakfast cereal goes in my body. Thanks choice!
She is absolutely AWESOME!!!
prof Sheena is certainly an inspiring person. Would love to hear more of her...
Can you please tell me if she is blind
Let me say how much I respect her.---What is not addressed is the dangers of "collective think."

Madam! You are inspiration to the depressed & illmotivated..great speech!
Choice =innovation
Innovation=Choice

@MrDemonshalo - Odd isn't it. She has her eyes open to the world more than most people with full sight!

a)Make your own choices
b)Be true to yourself
a)When I went to US, I never went to MaC, but went to SUBWAY.
I enjoied limitless choice. I never leave without sandwich.
I was impressed turky meat and tuna always.
She must also enjoy Subway choice.
b) Buy and read her marketing bible book of “Jam law” and make sure by yourself.
Even kids can understand “Jam law” is FAKE and they cry “Place the 4 kinds best seller jams”. Kids are honest. Adult like you change the feeling like “I must be wrong”..
The trouble isn't choice. It is responsibility.
She is a person of repute and has established herself well, in spite of her blindness and is successful professionally and personally (got married and has a boy too!) why to even pass worthless comments?

The story at the end with the nail polish was great.
She is brilliant
I really like her answer to the question at the of her presentation, even more than the presentation itself.
Wow completely took me off guard how I have been choosing. So much factors related to choosing you can't impose something to another.
her voice and her mind are beautiful.
@HumanistWikitopian I hear what you're saying, but we still want to be the ones who choose whether or not to ask for advice, who to seek advice from, how much weight to give to the advice we're give, or whether to ignore that advice entirely.

You can see her braille script at 7:40. Not that that matters; she's a great speaker.
Nice one. I just watched this TED talk: Dan Gilbert: Why are we happy? Why aren't we happy?
Which seems to be in a similar field. However it doesnt include cultural differences, it does refer to people with alzheimers.
It will forever remain a mystery to me why TED talks have people disliking them
Simplistic and incredibly patronizing to just about everyone
Hi Malinyc. She an S.T. Lee Professor of Business in the Management Division at Columbia Business School and the Director of the Global Leadership Matrix initiative. She went to Stanford and University of Pennsylvania. I would have been so lucky if she taught me at kindergarten though :)
she's saying many choice sucks, but either extreme is bad, no choice or to many. There just need to be right balance
AWESOME!
Simply Wow!
Sheena Iyengar was born in Toronto, Canada in 1969. Her parents had emigrated there from Delhi, India.
I don't know about You All but this lecture really moved me, and I am grateful for the observations work and thought that went into this [G*D Bless] and thank you @TED
Was he showing her the way at 23:57 ?
at the very least watch this part --> 12:35 - 12:58
it is true representation of the evolution of consumerism
Most of this talk has to do with cross cultural difference, and collectivist v, individualistic cultures. Being a 3rd culture kid, I feel like she spent the whole time opening up a theme so common to us (those who have been in both types of cultures), but not much further. But it's a crucial concept.
We Japanese have a custom to drink cold green tea with sugar in summer. Some restaurants have it. But not many, I think.
And most restaurants in Japan serve green tea to all customers for free. So you have to order something else other than tea!
So her problem wasn't that she wanted sugar in her green tea, but that she wanted a paid extra in her free drink.
This was the funniest TED Talk I've seen. Informative too.
@tessb I think you have a valid point - if you are really interested in the research data that backs up the anecdotes, you should give her book a read. I was surprised to see how different the book was when compared to this talk!
She's a fantastic speaker...
amazing voice & speech
I like what you wrote, very true and well expressed. Thank you for your perspective.
Excellent Ted talk. Loved it all ❤

She is blind but I found her very insightful 👏👏👏
@stampyvanhalen She is blind, she speaks slowly and carefully because she is read her speech with her fingers. The mind reads faster than the hand for regular people, but because she is blind she is reading and speaking at the pace of her hand. Anyway, its the content that matters. This was a great well researched and wonderfully presented with humor speech.
