Helpful Score: 1

I finally finished this one! It was a bit of a chore, but ultimately an interesting book that confirmed a lot of things that, subconsciously, I already knew (without thinking!).

One of my new favorite quotes comes from this book: Insight is not a lightbulb that goes off inside our heads. It is a flickering candle that can easily be snuffed out.

We often do ourselves more harm than good by overthinking things and end up confusing the issue. The real trick is learning to acknowledge those flickering candles and when to follow your gut because, as this book illustrates time and again, it rarely leads you in the wrong direction.

Sometimes, you just know things. Don't ignore that or second-guess it or try to explain it. It happens. And it's a good thing.
