The Power of Choice

Sally Kohn: Motivation is an interesting topic to me because unlike willpower, motivation seems like you can summon that if the need arises. One of the things that drives that motivation is this concept of do I have choice or do I have options and do I have control over those options? She says we should all get much more careful about saying yes and being knowledgeable when it comes to taking on new obligations. "It's very easy to take on an obligation without really considering what the cost of that is"
