A choose your behavior book.
#childrensbook
Plenty of interesting psychology in this book— helped me understand my own decision processes more. I think I‘ll come back to this book in a few years when I‘m making my next big round of life decisions.
“Autonomy” is SUCH a buzzword in medicine right now—Schwartz offered a different take, that more autonomy does not lead to more happiness.
Also enjoyed his explanations of satisfizers vs. maximizes, of sunk cost fallacy, and opportunity cost.
“As the number of choices grows further, the negatives escalate until we become overloaded. At this point, choice no longer liberates, but debilitates.” #overload #QuotsyOct20
A boy who loves to make noise gets to pick only one instrument (at his parents urging) in a music store, but there is too much to choose from!

#BiblioMAYnia Day 22: Not just one but 88 #MusicalInstrumentOnTheCover. One could use this picturebook to demonstrate how a child begins to fall in love with an instrument: and it starts off with one clear plink. I also chuckled at the clever twist in the end. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-iRv
#whichOneWednesday
📙 Paperback (I am slowly getting accustomed to audiobooks but still need print to catch up)
📙 Mystery
📙 I drink tea more often, but love to indulge in hot chocolate when I can
(Need to isolate myself from all the dreary news! It's crippling me and I can't even turn to my ebooks as usual ;(( thank goodness for paperbacks that briefly comfort me)
Happy Hump Day!
1. I have developed an appreciation for audiobooks, but will always prefer paperback
2. A solid mystery is best
3. Hot tea any day of the year!

NFNov #FOMO #WeeklyForecast and a post from @ljuliel about Kindle Unlimited and other sources for books have me wondering if I should try this one again.
