Скачать или смотреть Why We Discount Future Rewards: The Psychology of Delayed Discounting

Ever turned down something better in the future just to have something right now? That’s delayed discounting! It’s when we value immediate rewards way more than future ones, even if that future reward is bigger or better. Imagine being offered $50 now or $100 in a year. Most people actually choose the $50! Why? Because our brains are wired to prioritize instant gratification. The further away a reward is, the less we value it. Crazy, right? This kind of thinking can impact decisions like saving money or making healthy choices. So next time you’re tempted to go for the quick win, ask yourself: Is the long-term reward really worth ignoring? If this made you think twice, give this video a like and hit subscribe!
