Turns out that Shakespeare was a psychologist

People prefer choices.  Apparently, if we have many choices and get what we want, we will be happy; if not, we will be unhappy.  But, is happiness out of so called free will or free choice more lasting than what Dan Gilbert called "synthetic happiness"?

"Tis nothing good or bad.  But thinking makes it so" ~ William Shakespeare.

Shakespeare was right, I guess.
