Blink !

The book by Malcolm Gladwell that is, not your eyes honey!
Dear Husband is reading a book, yes he is becoming a reader it seems, thanks to Kindle and one of the features we really like is before buying a book, you can get a free sample of pages from the book and then decide if you want to purchase it or ignore it! Yesterday, we got a sample of Blink , the power of thinking without thinking. the author talks about the decisions we make in a snap with the current state of mind we are, which could be either Positive sentiment override or negative sentiment override. When in former, we tend to be more accommodating while being in the latter we attack, grrrr! So we were discussing the sample that hubby dear read who usually is in positive sentiment and it turned out that the discussion became a debate and both the parties involved couldn't override anything. After exhausting each other's sentiments, we called it a Sunday and went for shopping. And I think the author should have included this in the book that shopping is always a PSO, that is , Positive Sentiment Override!! Works for me, Perfect Shopping, override or not.

Whats your PSO?
