Blink

So before I describe the meetings we had, I think it is important to explain the concept of "blink" as described by this book by Malcolm Gladwell.

Karen and I had just read this book and both thought it was fantastic.

The general idea of the book was to put scientific reasoning behind why we have gut instincts and why they are so often right.

being the type of hyper-logical person that I am - having logical scientific reasons for gut instincts is powerful stuff. I had often trusted my gut, but would also search for a logical reason why that I could not identify and thus have some internal conflict. this book and the brilliant way it is presented allowed me to trust my instincts with much more trust, and almost no internal conflict.

the "blink" philopsophies would come up a lot in this process.
