Even if we think and want more options to choose from it actually leads us to disappointment. For example with the ice cream shown in the video. We would have been just as pleased if not more with just choosing from three flavors rather than many flavors. ]]> 2017-10-23 19:54:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cmyers1129/a5592ag7vg3i/wish/199768014 cmyers1129 https://padlet.com/cmyers1129/a5592ag7vg3i/wish/199769484 I never realized how easily our brain or us could be tricked by ourselves into forgetting what we originally chose for an example when the men chose a different girl but described the opposite girl they originally chose. ]]> 2017-10-23 19:59:26 UTC https://padlet.com/cmyers1129/a5592ag7vg3i/wish/199769484 cmyers1129 https://padlet.com/cmyers1129/a5592ag7vg3i/wish/199770165 What surprised me was the question "Mary's mother has four children April, May, June, ...July? 
NO 80 percent of people who tested got this question wrong. The answer was in the question MARY. This question was supposed to trick us. It has to do with our automatic brain. Our brain uses short cuts all the time in our day to day life to reach a decision quickly and efficiently. ]]> 2017-10-23 20:01:48 UTC https://padlet.com/cmyers1129/a5592ag7vg3i/wish/199770165
