Intuition vs Ego

The ego and rational mind are the gods worshipped in this society. I can tell you they are fake gods that lie to us and deceive us most of the time. Their value is subject to inflation.

When you listen to  your intuition, that soft feeling, silent whispering voice that we learned to suppress as we grow into adulthood, it tells you everything in an instant, in the first five seconds that you meet someone, the first five seconds that you get familiar with a situation.

But as we have learned at school and from society, most of the teachings which prove to be bogus when you get more aware, we do not trust what this intuition has to tell us.

I have learned my lessons the hard way, seeing always the best in everyone. I have been blinded by what I wanted to see, not wanting to see that some people also have darker traits that only reveal themselves in more difficult situations or much later in time.

All the people I ever met, no exception, my intuition told me from the beginning what the relation was about, how strange or how good it felt in the beginning, what I spotted. Most of those informations I ignored and let my mind take over if I spotted something that felt very awkward in the beginning. I told myself not to be judgmental, thinking of probably having a bad day or not seeing the beauty that was there. I have made these mistakes in business and in personal life as well. It has learned me much about the nature of human psychology and the nature of man.

All the 'bad intuitions' turned out to be negative experiences, either soon , or either 3 years later when the real truth and attitude surfaced. Time after time my intuition warned me in the very beginning, but I ignored.

I have paid hard for these insights in financial and personal terms. But I have learned my lesson: now my intuition rules!
If tomorrow I am in front of the most extraordinary business deal or experience and my intuition tells no, I do not continue because I know that the fulfillment of my intuition will come, it might be tomorrow or in 10 years.

Every experience is valuable and we always learn, but I prefer not to lose time on making the wrong decisions.

What did your intuition tell you today?
