BLINK! THE POWER OF THINKING WITHOUT THINKING📚
<div class="text-justify">

Hello there! Hi, good day. How are you today? By the way, thank you for reading my last blog, and now this is my new blog. Please enjoy everyone as you read it, and do support me also. Thank you so much.

<sub> library </sub>

I didn't grow up as a bookworm, but now I want to read and explore different books that can have a learning effect after reading them. It happened when my brother received a book from his teacher and he just put it everywhere, and I decided to keep and read it. The title is Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking.

<sub> book of Malcolm Gladwell </sub>

It is a second book written by Malcolm Gladwell. If I have a lesson gained from reading that book, it would be that decisions made quickly can be as important as ones made over a long period of time. Sometimes our instincts betray us, and our first impressions and snap judgments can be educated and controlled.

##### Who is Malcolm Gladwell

Malcolm Timothy Gladwell CM (born September 3, 1963) is an English-born Canadian journalist, author, and public speaker. He has been a staff writer for The New Yorker since 1996. He has published seven books. He is also the host of the podcast Revisionist History and co-founder of the podcast company Pushkin Industries.

<sub> variety of techniques </sub>

He employs a variety of techniques, including syntax, style, and other elements, to good effect. In addition to being well-versed in contemporary culture, he has a broad knowledge of history and the Bible, which some of his rivals do not possess.

##### Thinking without thinking

Malcolm Gladwell's book "Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking" centers on the idea that, when supported by a strong foundation of experience and knowledge, quick, instinctive decisions can frequently be just as good as or even superior to deliberate ones. Gladwell examines how intuition and the subconscious mind play a role in making decisions.

<sub> books </sub>
Sometimes I go to our library, which is inside the campus, to read books and to explore different stories from all the books that I read.

Books are knowledge-based archival materials that provide insights into a wide range of topics, cultures, and experiences. Frequent reading improves vocabulary and language comprehension, which facilitates effective communication. It also fosters analytical reasoning, critical thinking, problem-solving techniques, and mental agility and creativity.

Reading can be a calming and stress-relieving activity that allows one to escape reality. Fictional stories help readers develop emotional intelligence and an appreciation for different points of view by letting them identify with characters.By practicing memory recall and retention, reading improves cognitive function and staves off memory loss.

One can escape reality and find calmness and relief from stress through reading. Fictional stories enable readers to relate to characters, which fosters emotional intelligence and an appreciation of diverse viewpoints.

<sub> cognitive </sub>

Reading helps prevent memory loss and enhances cognitive function by practicing memory recall and retention.

Another message of the book are every decision should be carefully considered as you consider the advantages, disadvantages, ramifications, and all of your options; however, overanalyzing can prevent you from reaching a final decision. It's critical to be able to make a decision quickly after weighing all the options.


Books provide information on a wide range of topics, allowing readers to expand their knowledge and understanding of the world.Reading exposes readers to new words and phrases.

<sub> promoting relaxation </sub>

Engaging with books stimulates the brain, improving cognitive function and reducing the risk of cognitive decline as people age.Reading can be a form of escapism, providing a mental break from the stresses of everyday life and promoting relaxation.

Reading allows readers to empathize with characters from diverse backgrounds and experiences, fostering empathy and understanding in real life. Reading requires focus and attention, helping to improve concentration skills and the ability to maintain focus for extended periods of time.

<sub> benefits </sub>

##### Benefits of reading books

Exposure to well-written prose and diverse writing styles can improve one's own writing abilities and creativity.Books provide entertainment and enjoyment, allowing readers to immerse themselves in compelling stories and narratives. Reading books offers a multitude of benefits for personal growth, intellectual development, and overall well-being.

<sub> power of thinking without thinking </sub>

Our unconscious attitudes and prejudices play a deep role in our judgments and rush decisions, hence the title, "the power of thinking without thinking." When you read about how making snap decisions or split second decisions can lead you astray, it can be quite misleading.
That was the best book I have read, though I am not done reading all the pages in it yet, but I know I can gain a lesson from the book.

This is all hivers! Thank you so much. I am recommending this book to each of you. Please read it. God bless you and your family. Thank you for reading. See you on my next blog.

It looks like a really interesting book. Reading definitely has a lot of benefits. In fact, this post remind me that I should read more in English (it's my second language) so I can improve it more.

Nice post
