This work offers a SUMMARY of the book "BLINK" originally written by MALCOLM GLADWELL. Malcolm Gladwell explains our ability to make snap decisions or quick judgments in a blink of an eye. This is the power of thinking without thinking. The main focus of the book is “thin-slicing” - our ability to gauge what is really important from a very narrow period of experience. In other words, spontaneous decisions are often as good as, or even better than carefully planned and considered ones. Malcolm Gladwell urges us to embrace the unconscious hints and decisions our brain makes when making important decisions in life. First impressions and snap judgments can be educated and controlled and therefore trusting our intuition is often crucial to decision making.
The original book is brilliant and deeply insightful. But it is ~200 pages in length. This work summarizes the central message and key insights presented in the original book. It is easy to read and understand. It saves you time.
