blink - The Power of Thinking without Thinking

Just want to share a little about this book I'm currently reading...it's from Malcolm Gladwell and if you're familiar with his books, he's also written the bestseller "The Tipping Point"

Yes...Ryan and Reading does not usually go together except maybe sports journals, newspapers and magazines....

I've had this book sitting on my shelf for like a gazillion years, including "The Tipping Point" which I will get to once I'm done with this one...

This book is amazing...it basically talks about choices we make in an instant - in the blink of an eye - and when compared to our decisions made after spending a lot of time deliberating and processing the most information, they are not by any means any much worse.

In fact, if you spent some time thinking about some of the best decisions you have made in the past month, you'll probably not be able to explain to others how you actually arrived at those decisions.

I don't want to kill your joy by sharing too much here in this posting...also probably do not want Mr Gladwell sueing me for copyright so I'll just leave you to discover the wonders of this book yourself..

I'll probably be done with this book in another 2 days so if anyone wants to borrow it, please just give me a holler. I've been buried in it for the past 2 days so yes, I may have started picking up reading again.

It's been SO LONG since I've buried myself in any book...the last was probably one of those TERRY GOODKIND fantasy books...yeah..I remember those days...
