The error of rationalism is thinking that an important idea can strike you without cause. Actually, an “aha” moment can occur, although it’s usually not so dramatic and sudden. But even if such a thing did occur—“Yes, THIS is my answer!”—it will only come as the result of many hours of effort and/or thinking. No knowledge or insight comes automatically. There’s always effort leading up to the integration implied by the “aha.”
