Intuition. Do you trust yours?

Sometimes we can all get a feeling or a sense of a situation without actually knowing. Sometimes that feeling is right, sometimes it's just our overthinking brains working overtime.

Do you think you're intuitive? Do you trust your intuition?

Yes I do. I go with my gut instinct and it rarely lets me down. I think the older you get, the more people you meet in life and the more experiences you have, I think you get a better understanding and you can go on your own feelings/intuition/gut instinct.

Your gut is your second brain, so the gut feeling is to be listened to. Especially when the first brain or the heart are playing silly buggers

I always listen to my intuition and gut feeling. It’s never let me down, at all.

I think there's more going on than we can see. Intuition, spiritual etc.

I was watching something a few weeks ago where a wife of a husband who was working late suddenly got the felling he had just died. Later that night the police knocked and told her he was involved in a crash (I think it was a crash). She told the police she knew. You could call it coincidence but I think there is more going on than we really understand

I didn't think I was intuitive until I joined Fab. That trait or quality manifested itself quite early on when I started to pick up on the idiosyncrasies of this place; the gotchas, the BS, the drama, the colourful characters and so forth.

My intuition has served me well. It means that I'm usually in the driving seat, irrespective of the outcome. The outcomes have been wholly positive.

I think mine is spot on ….. and it’s never proved me wrong so far ….

My gut instinct is usually right but I rarely listen to it

I normally think it's just my over thinking brain and me being overly cautious.

I used to trust my intuition, but I was catastrophically wrong about someone and I’ve doubted myself ever since. These days I find caution and distrust to be a suitable substitute.

Whilst I don’t always react to my intuition in the first instance, it raises my awareness to situations and usually prepares me for what might happen.

My gut seldom lets me down.

Despite civilisation, we are still animals and possess the same highly evolved defense mechanisms as our wild cousins.

I used to teach a self defense course which was partly based around this principle. To illustrate this we would show cctv videos of genuine attacks on innocent people. You can see these poor people stop what they were doing just before the attack, look towards their attacker, then the civilised part of their brain tells them to ignore this warning and go back to what they were doing.

Trust your gut.

I wonder if the ability to listen to your gut is also a measure of your self esteem, or self value?

When my self worth has been low in the past I've really ignored my gut and constantly second guessed myself.

These days my self worth is better, with age and wisdom. I also seem to be able to hear more clearly what my gut is telling me. Now I just need to follow it without question lol

Yeah that's all well and good until you come across something you really want even though you know it will end in disaster... you do it anyway. Because you really fucking want it. Yeah. That's when instinct fails. The fucker.

You know what I am guilty of, giving people the benefit of the doubt, when it goes against my intuition. It is almost never wrong.

We all like to think we're intuitive. With hindsight or rewriting the past to better suit our narrative.

I think it's good when intuition can be listened to, sometimes it's not really that though. It's personal bias, overthinking etc.

Sometimes it can be better to say fuck it and do it anyway. See what happens.

Oh yeah.. We all naturally have good Intuition. We don't always learn or trust to use it.

To me it is an innate ability to deeply know or sense something on a visceral, cellular level.

Sometimes it's difficult to interpret. And we are masters at overriding because our ego doesn't like the action or the consequences that would occur if we really listened.

But the fundamental sense of intuition is often perceived in somatic response. Our clever psyche and nervous system and body letting us know something.

When we listen at a basic level.. It can simply notify us if something is right or wrong. If something is a yes, no or don't know. A stop or go or wait. We don't have to interpret exactly.. In fact, often when we try to, our ego gets in the way and our mind often tries to attach some narrative to the feeling that isn't always the truth or indeed, useful.

Intuition is a clue from our wise innate selves. A reminder to listen in. It's good to listen in.

It's sometimes in retrospect and reflection when we do our learning and we realise our intuition was bang on.

I'm fairly intuitive and use my intuition to guide my decisions. But it can also be what keeps us stuck, by foregoing the new.

Far better to evaluate rationally, including taking on board your instinctive feedback. You may reach the same or different conclusion

I have decided to on this place but IRL I often ignore the tingle of warning, and it is never (rarely) wrong.

Generally, yes. Although I'm not so sure at the moment. I'm re-evaluating some stuff currently and will see how I feel about it then.
