It's weird how instinct works. It tells us fear; it offers us opportunities of joy; it makes us hide when we need to (or not) and it does shape our decisions. Sure, normality and plans may be the more *sensible* route. But sense doesn't always make the best bedfellow. Cheers for reminding us that we should trust our instincts more, Suze.

I love this post. It does take courage to listen to yourself and follow your instincts. To be able to separate the two voices in the head. To trust yourself enough to jump in with both feet and see where it takes you!

Thank you for sharing your wisdom with all of us. It is deeply appreciated.

great post :) your gut is def. where it’s at :)

Your inner knowing comes from first your instincts, second your intellect, and third from your intuition. Most people only operate from the level of the intellect. If you get a hunch from your instincts the intellect is great at rationalizing therefore negating an intelligence that is grounded in a deeper reality. Your instincts have a higher intelligence that comes from the past that allowed you to survive. Your intuition comes from a higher cosmic intelligence that simply just knows and does not require logic.

I am glad I stumbled onto your site, I look forward to your future posts.

Seeing as we have similar perspectives I think you would enjoy my post “how to develop your 6th sense: Intuition”

Your post reminds me of a great book I read called “Blink” by Malcolm Gladwell about intuition and trusting your gut. I think that we get too wrapped up in the outside world and ignore our gut feelings, and the results are unfavorable most of the time. It’s not until you “learn the hard way” that you really start to believe and trust yourself and react to your inner feelings. I also think age has a lot to do with it. I’m listening to myself a lot more now than ever (40ish). Older and wiser as they say.

So much wisdom, Suze! I love it! I'm still trying to find that balance but I am also trying to listen to the voices (the right ones) that tell me when to move forward and when to leave. I left a non-profit last year after 17 years not because it didn't have value but because there was so much on my plate that I couldn't see straight and I didn't feel valued by a few vocal people... (overall, I did feel valued but the loud voices stick in your head) Right now, I have met great people, like yourself through social media and my faith in people with vision has been restored. I still have lots to work on but I can start one step at a time... Thank you! Julie Walraven’s last blog post..A Business Study - The Filling Station
