Not all of us are happy with our life. We want to improve our situation, but often we don’t know how and what to do. Often we think that someone else will give us a hint on what to do in certain situations. We watch TV, ask friends. There is a problem, and we go to friends, tell, ask for advice or act in accordance with those stereotypes that exist in society. But it often happens that from such a solution to problems, the result for some reason turns out to be completely different from what we would like to get. And there are situations when we ourselves just come up with a saving thought or idea. We call this source intuition.
Our deepest "I", as psychologists call it, is a source of intuitive tips that give us additional information in each specific life case that we need in order to understand ourselves and solve our problems.
It turns out that we have a great "helper" in ourselves, which for some reason we do not listen to. After all, no one can know our own problems better than ourselves. And we can solve them only. In the best case, if you tell someone about your problems, then this person will begin to give advice from his point of view, having his own experience, perhaps not even related to ours.
Unfortunately, we rarely listen to our intuitive source. The conflict begins with the fact of non-recognition, rejection of the existence of such a part in us. Intuitive hints are coming, but we don’t want to recognize them, we are afraid to follow them, we act “as always”, we do what smart people write in books or say.
The question immediately arises, but how to distinguish intuitive prompts from random thoughts?
There is no universal mechanism for recognizing these prompts. For each person this mechanism is purely individual. To learn how to distinguish intuitive prompts, for starters it’s important to simply know that this mechanism is in us and that it works. And of course, this comes with experience. Need your experience, your mistakes, your finds.
Remember a situation when you were faced with a choice. At such moments, we always have various thoughts, sensations and tips on how and what we need to do. Relatively speaking, at first I wanted to do so, then somehow, and then the thought came
.Amid all this chaos, there is an intuitive hint. Selecting it right away is not easy.
And now let's fast forward to the time when you have already made a choice, made an act, and it became obvious whether you were mistaken or not. And if now you recall the sensations that you had at the time of making the decision, then you will recall that there was a correct hint.
And if the decision was made incorrectly, then you just need to analyze why this hint was not taken into account. There was no self-confidence? Fear prevented? Maybe something else? Such an analysis helps a lot to correctly select an intuitive hint in the future.
Remember when you used the intuitive prompt correctly. How did you feel? Remember what this prompt was, how it came, what sensation accompanied it? By these indirect signs, you can learn to recognize intuitive prompts.
Everything here is very individual and, unfortunately, the general algorithm as a sequence of actions simply does not exist.
As much as you are ready to observe your feelings and not reject any information that you have, no matter how unexpected it is (intuitive clues are often paradoxical), the likelihood that the true clue will be easier for you to recognize and you will make the right decisions.
