A renowned psychologist argues that free will is not only real but essential to our well-being
It’s become fashionable to argue that free will is a fiction: that we humans are in the thrall of animal urges and unconscious biases and only think that we are choosing freely. In
Freely Determined
, research psychologist Kennon Sheldon argues that this perception is not only wrong but also dangerous. Drawing on decades of his own groundbreaking empirical research into motivation and goal setting, Sheldon shows us that embracing the ability to choose our path in life makes us happier, healthier, and more fulfilled.

Providing readers insight into how they can live a more self-directed, satisfying life,
offers an essential guide for how we might recognize our freedom and use it wisely.
