À propos de cet audio
A renowned psychologist argues that free will is not only real but essential to our well-being
It’s become fashionable to argue that free will is a fiction: that we humans are in the thrall of animal urges and unconscious biases and only think that we are choosing freely. In Freely Determined, research psychologist Kennon Sheldon argues that this perception is not only wrong but also dangerous. Drawing on decades of his own groundbreaking empirical research into motivation and goal setting, Sheldon shows us that embracing the ability to choose our path in life makes us happier, healthier, and more fulfilled. He also shows that this insight can help us choose better goals—ones that are concordant with our values and that, critically, we’re more likely to actually see through.
Providing listeners insight into how they can live a more self-directed, satisfying life, Freely Determined offers an essential guide for how we might recognize our freedom and use it wisely.

Sheldon (P)2022 Blackstone Publishingthat said, the idea of a symbolic self isn't necessary, you can just say the conscious self, or the self. breaking a mind into different categories is part of the reason people are confused about free will to begin with. secondly, the epilogue about living our lives for a better world is rather quaint but ultimately unuseful. people need rational egoism, the philosophy of bettering one's self through generating and attaining higher values (which Sheldon goes into detail on) AND not sacrificing our values for others or accepting the sacrifices of others.
great analysis, okay conclusion
