The Nudge: Intuition

Intuition is a powerful tool that can guide us in making decisions and solving problems. It is often described as a “gut feeling” or a “hunch,” and it can be challenging to explain or justify. Despite this, intuition is a valuable asset that should be trusted and respected.
The Nudge
Intuition can be considered a “nudge” from our subconscious mind. It signals that something is off or that a particular course of action is correct. While it may not always be clear or logical, intuition is often based on past experiences and observations that our brain has processed and stored.
Don’t Push Back
One of the most important things to remember when it comes to intuition is not to push back against it. Instead, trust your instincts and follow the nudge. This can be difficult, especially in situations where we are uncertain or under pressure. It can be easy to second-guess ourselves or dismiss our intuition as irrational. But it is important to remember that intuition is based on a deep understanding of the situation, even if unaware.
Not Infallible
Another thing to remember when it comes to intuition is that it is not always correct. While intuition can be a valuable guide, it is not infallible. It is essential to use intuition in conjunction with other information sources and consider multiple perspectives. It is also necessary to be open to new information that may change our understanding of a situation. Do the reps. Do the work. Then trust your gut.
