Gladwell gives an example about a marine named Paul Van Riper. Riper lead one side of the army in a mock battle, he used his rapid cognition, while the opponent used information from all the latest technology they had. Yet Riper land a strong attack on the opponent leaving them stunned by his surprising attack. Riper used older tactics from his past experiences to advance his army. Another example of rapid cognition being helpful was with firefighters. Sometimes rapid cognition gives you information for dangerous situations. Gladwell wrote of a firefighter who told the others to evacuate and it saved their lives because the floor collapsed. The surrounds gave information of the situation and the subconscious processed it and add information from past experiences or knowledge to warn the person of danger. Each mindset was created for a reason and both of them put together help people create the best possible decision for a situation. Sometimes the mindsets have different ideas about something. An example given was race, in the an test, people tend to associate black with violence even if they believed in equality. This is due to rapid cognition
