Decisiveness is a prized attribute.
You may decide, without knowing it, to dislike someone at first glance.
Instincts can be explained as decisions sped up. Just as we may not initially have words to describe how facial features differ, but are able to eventually observe and describe the tilt of the eyes, the protrusion of the lips, and the knob of the nose, if we were to slow our feelings down frame by frame, we could explain why we felt how we felt the moment we felt what we felt.
But instincts are habits too, and they may be, should be arrested before they wreak havoc.
When is it right to honour split-second decisions, and when to make careful, balanced decisions?
If, by choice or circumstance, you do not detail your decisions, on whom does the burden of explanation fall? Is anyone listening?
