Can You Trust Your Instincts?
Instincts are a God given gift to you. It is your job to learn how to trust your instincts. Your instincts are there for your protection and your well-being. If you ignore them, then you are at risk for making bad decisions.
Sometimes instincts come as a whisper, or a little bit of a nagging feeling. When we ignore that cue then the instinct will come louder and give us another warning. It is surprising to me when I counsel people how they knew that they should not have gone in certain directions and yet they did. They ignored their instinct.
I think that when year after year you forget to trust this thing called instinct, then it becomes harder and harder to learn to trust it. We become accustom to not knowing what to trust. The best advice is to start small. When you get that little nagging feeling, then I would learn to trust in the smaller things, and then to work up to bigger and bigger. You will learn that your instincts are right on.
