Learning to respect SNAP judgements in decision making

Adopted from the following great insight shared by Malcolm Gladwell from the book BLINK exposes us to the power of snap judgements

We really only trust conscious decision making. But there are moments, particularly in times of stress, when haste does not make waste, when our snap judgments and first impressions can offer a much better means of making sense of the world. The first task of Blink is to convince you of a simple fact: decisions made very quickly can be every bit as good as decisions made cautiously and deliberately.
