The paradox of choice
When it comes to getting things done, options aren’t always a good thing.

Paradox of choice.
When we're overloaded with opportunities and options, we suffer from what psychologists refer to as the paradox of choice.

The Paradox of Choice
Having more options doesn’t mean that we will be happier, although, we often think that it will.
When we have too many choices, it is more difficult to take action, and if we decide, we are less satisfied with our choice.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
