In this TEDx talk, Dr. Sheetal Nair, a psychotherapist from John Hopkins, shares his research on the science of Instant Gratification & Procrastination. He challenges the common perception that we are bogged down by our procrastinations because we usually get what we want and explains why our brains are wired to provide us with a sense of purpose even when we don't get what we think we want. Dr. Sheetal Nair also discusses how our ability to imagine the future and our ability to make the right choice can help us rework our brains & impact our happiness. Finally, he offers practical advice on how we can use this knowledge to transform into a better version of ourselves.
