Quick Advice on Trusting Your Leadership Gut
Intuition is about listening to your subconscious mind (gut instincts) to pull forward information and feelings that you���ve accumulated over a lifetime. Warriors have to rely on instinct, using every possible sense from outside and every stirring from inside to stay alive.
Emotional memory is probably the strongest memory that we have, and it���s also the one most quickly accessed. Emotional memory is the one we feel in our gut, and it helps us access the gigabytes of memory stored in our subconscious faster than any processor yet made. So, intuition is this stream of awareness that flows from our subconscious to our conscious, but it requires our tuning in to hear the signal.
s It���s not a problem when data is tagged with emotions; it���s ready for quick retrieval and usually easy to access. At other times, it���s as simple as stopping to ask yourself, ���What is my gut telling me about this���what is my intuition?���
Reflecting, waiting, and listening with our feelings for insight is a practice used by wise people throughout the history of civilization, and in our increasingly fast-paced society it���s a lost art. If we ignore or fail to cultivate the intuitive half of our decision-making abilities, we become less than our best as leaders and merely rely on the facts at hand.
What about you? What has been your experience? And why do you believe that some leaders ignore or don���t develop their intuitive abilities when it would produce better results and greater success? Please share your thoughts and comments.
