I think about this all of the time. When I pay attention to little decisions I make throughout the day it usually makes sense why I've chosen one path over the other. For instance, food choice. I can't count how many times seeing or hearing about someone else eating a particular kind of food has primed me to want to eat that food. That's a pretty obvious example of how we're programmed at a social level. You can go further and think about longer term choices and they are pretty obvious too, given your upbringing, environment, and early personal experiences. Every action stems from biological motivation.
