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
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.
She has a very open mind and an international perspective..
very refreshing
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.
Just absolutely fell in love of how insightful and intriguing the entire speech was. Kudos to @Sheena Iyengar
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
This just shows that there is a balance to everything. No choice is just as bad as too many choices!!!
This woman is absolutely mesmerizing.
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 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!
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 ~
Thank you for also supporting the library!
Bravo! She is so impressive in her presentation of her knowledge . I'm taken by her demeanor.
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.
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!!
So informative. She is so well spoken.
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! :)
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!
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! I tip my hat to you Ms. Iyengar.
Madam! You are inspiration to the depressed & illmotivated..great speech!
she is amazing.
Wow completely took me off guard how I have been choosing. So much factors related to choosing you can't impose something to another.
She is absolutely AWESOME!!!
@cooperbep3 Me too only noticed it when they show that she was reading braille from the sheet.

He speak felt really well written. Amazing!
I really like her answer to the question at the of her presentation, even more than the presentation itself.
I like what you wrote, very true and well expressed. Thank you for your perspective.
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.
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.
hi
yes she is! look at 07:37 and 07:40
it's Braille tactile writing, you don't need eyes to read it
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 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
Muito interessante, a questão do esmalte no final foi muito engraçado e verdadeiro hahaha costumamos escolher coisas pela sensação que elas nos passam
This is a gem. I'm glad they recorded this.
shes a great speaker, great storyteller!
She's a fantastic speaker...
AWESOME!
Wow, Sheena Iyengar is smart, articulate and persuasive! What an illuminating, well-delivered talk on choice and choosing!
This presentation is a gift to the Internet. My world view has expanded from watching it.
I thought the same thing! Very harmonious and soothing!
The story at the end with the nail polish was great.
prof Sheena is certainly an inspiring person. Would love to hear more of her...
Can you please tell me if she is blind
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
her voice and her mind are beautiful.
amazing voice & speech
Fantastic presentation so much information so well delivered.
Fantastic Competent Woman!
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
.
very inspirational, great speaker. thanks for uploading.
Excellent Ted talk. Loved it all ❤
What she said in the last experience of herself was adorable and glamorous as well! Nothing is sexier than being original!
2020 Quarantine did bring A Nerdy Beast OUT OF ME....Indebted forever for such spectacular talk.
Love and Respect from INDIA
🇮🇳💓🙏
Amazing!
great subject, very well explained!
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
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 am so fascinated by these talks on choosing - Thank you so much! the nailpolish Oh so True :)
What an amazing talk!
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.
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.
Off topic but, For the first time in my life, I saw a Rolex ad.
love the story at the end!
Amazing talk.
One of the very interesting talks.
Wow!! so inspiring. This womans mind is beautiful
Loved watching this.
Very interesting.
You hit it. I loved it.
@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!
Fantastic!
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.
Inspiring talk.
what a nice way to express
she's very good! i understand everything
top speaker, humorous and sweet!
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.
I thought this video was about how I would be better at making choices.
It was not that kind of video, but I´m glad i stumbled over it!
The thing about the former Soviet countries though true are a bit outdated though, they have had capitalism for a long time now.
Still a very intersting video!
I have mental problems and when it comes to large decisions I just tend to either freeze up or not anything which is a real problem for me!
Wow very insightful Ted and aspiring. 👌❤️
Simplistic and incredibly patronizing to just about everyone
the one at the beginning with sugar was good too
excellent,would be my choice to exemplify choice.
and the rose is the point.
So Cool... good work Sheena
TED we love you
Amazing. 🤩
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.
A BEAUTIFUL MIND
@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.
Excellent insights thanks :) a lot
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 :)
"Of course, you and I know that coke is the better choice."
great.
Wonderful! I wish she had addressed just how manipulation can and does occur when the number if choices is either increased or decreased. It was hinted at toward the end with the nail polish story. Maybe I put that awkwardly. Too, maybe we ought to make a differentiation between significant choice and non-significant choice? I loved this talk! I have go watch again.
I loved it
Good talk.
Really interesting talk.
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.
@MrDemonshalo - Odd isn't it. She has her eyes open to the world more than most people with full sight!
Tremendous!
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?
Looks at choice in end-of-life decisions (withdrawal of treatment)
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.
