Have you ever been surprised at how something turned out just as you had a feeling it would? Maybe you felt there was no real way of knowing how things would actually turn out, but something inside you told you it would turn out a particular way?
In my work I encourage clients to follow their "gut feelings." The quote above is the reason our "gut feelings" are so important to our lives. You have a wealth of feelings and experiences that give you important information when you aren't even consciously trying to tap into it. The older we get, the stronger our hunches can be. Even bad experiences...or perhaps especially bad experiences increase this information we are filing away for future use.
The next time you have a hunch, follow it. See if you were right or wrong. Even if it turns out you were wrong, chances are the experience could strengthen your "gut feelings" later and make your hunches more accurate.
