Blink....

I have been reading the book Blink by Malcolm Gladwell of late.

I think it is highly engaging and there is a lot to process that is contained in the book.

This passage struck me this evening: "If you have to rely on your reflexes, someone is going to get hurt unnecessarily. If you take advantage of intelligence and cover, you will almost never have to make an instinctive decision."

I think that this is the basic essence of some of the challenges we face week to week in the club. We need not make decisions without context, rather we should better job of appreciating the context on the situation in which we find ourseleves. The picture was right there all along, we just needed to take one step back farther to see it.
