Should I Decide with My Head or My Gut?
We can safely say that humans are decision making animals. However, just because we are constantly making decisions doesn’t mean that these decisions are necessarily rational. In fact, most of our decisions are not rational. They are made on the spur of the moment out of habit or, in more extreme circumstances, intuitively or instinctively. Intuition is essential in crises and emergencies, whereas a more deliberate approach is needed when time and circumstances permit. This article provides some rules of thumb to follow in rapid decision making

The First Thing You Say In Marketing…
People make snap judgments in all their interactions. According to Malcolm Gladwell’s Blink, you have two seconds before someone jumps to a conclusion. You have two seconds to state your initial marketing message.
Would You Want It If It Were Free?
The meme of “Free” is one again making the rounds. I expect it reignited when Chris Anderson’s new book Free: The Future of a Radical Price (available on Amazon for $17.81) quickly followed by Malcolm Gladwell’s semi-scathing review in the New Yorker titled “Priced to Sell. Is Free the future?” (I kind of feel like Gladwell wimped out on the review, even though I like Anderson’s point of view better than Gladwell’s.) This then created a predictable tussle in the blogosphere, the kind of which I find tedious and dull, so I avoided the rest of it.
Hard Work, Outstanding Performance and Success
Outstanding performance is an important key to career and life success. As Malcolm Gladwell points out, outstanding performers are hard workers. They know what they want and do whatever it takes to get it. They enthusiastically act on their dreams. This action helps them reach their goals. There is no way around hard work. You have to put in the time and effort if you want to be successful. Ask any "overnight success." Everyone that I've ever met tells me that they spent years and years getting to the place where they became an "overnight success." Set your goals. Work hard. Work smart. And you'll succeed.

The Opportunity of the Information Age
In the book Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell explains that success by no means is just sheer hard work and high IQ. It also involves your upbringing, being presented with the right opportunity at the right time and your thought process. There is one section that I found quite interesting.

Your Environment: A Determining factor to your Success
In his book Blink, Malcolm Gladwell covers a topic on Priming The Subconscious Mind. I feel there is an interesting point being exercised here, and would like to share it with you. He mentions about a very curious test conducted by a psychologist named John Bargh, called the Priming Experiment. Read on...
The Science of Achievement Applied to Sales Success
After reading Malcolm Gladwell's book, I found that his findings really resonated with what I had seen in my own observations of thousands of sales people and the qualities that translate into success. It serves to highlight the need for assessments and for sales training.

Do You Suffer from Expert Failure?
Malcolm Gladwell was talking about a concept he calls "Expert Failure." He was suggesting that once you feel you have mastered your area of expertise, you stop seeing the warning signs of what might be breaking down or what might possibly go wrong.
