Over the years, I worked hard to avoid being influenced by first impressions and blindly adhering to convention.
I think this is why I and Eko are so different. I grew up reading and being taught that we need to witheld judgement on first impression. Only form judgement when enough evidence has come to light. Eko on the other hand uses his “premonition” a lot. One can learn form the other of course, that I need to listen to my instinct more (like in business), and he to realize he is not always correct.
