So, I love Mr Gladwell. Seriously. He really makes it all sound so easy.

I first read The Tipping Point ages ago. See, it's all about how phenomena, buzz, etc are created. Well, that's really oversimplifying but I think you get the point. And Blink kind of follows along those lines, only not. As the title would suggest it's about thinking without thinking. As in, the snap judgments we make within seconds. Which is now how I'm going to live. I will not spend hours, days, thinking things over, if it doesn't feel right in the first five seconds it probably isn't right. Honestly, when I think back on the last couple of years some of the worst decisions I've made have had hours, days, etc of pondering behind them.
