As a chronic over-analyzer of things, I was intrigued by the subtitle of the book Hare Brain, Tortoise Mind: How Intelligence Increases When You Think Less. I sure wouldn’t mind thinking less, I thought. Maybe this book can help me out, I thought.
Unfortunately, the very act of reading the book required way too much thinking. It was far too academic for me, and I couldn’t make it past the first few chapters. With a title like that, I was expecting something more along the lines of Malcolm Gladwell’s Blink, or a series of stories about people “trusting their gut” to get great results. Didn’t happen.
Maybe it gets better once you get into it, but I couldn’t stick around to find out.
