Interesting Ted Talk by Nobel laureate and founder of behavioral economics Daniel Kahneman. Using examples from vacations to colonoscopies, he talks about how our "experiencing selves" and our "remembering selves" perceive happiness differently. Duration - 21 minutes.
We don’t choose between experiences, we choose between memories of experiences. Even when we think about the future, we don’t think of our future normally as experiences. We think of our future as anticipated memories. ~ Daniel Kahneman
