Bingo Jennifer! It has been said that extremely creative people cannot take multiple choice exams because they can always find reasons for most choices having enough value to warrant extended consideration.  Maybe a nightmare for efficiency addicts. But I think we need to allow ourselves the extra time to think things through, if only to ward off the fools and charlatans pitching the poorest choices with loud voices and 140 characters.

Over-thinking is what under-thinking people call thinking.

Subject: [RESADM-L] Over thinking

I am needing just a little love from my RESADM peeps today.  Am I the only person who regularly gets accused of over thinking when involved in policy development, contract negotiations, proposal review, or non-compliance problem resolution?  Can someone tell me what “over thinking” actually is?  I may have to spend some time thinking about this…..  ;-}
