THE THING...

Have you ever had a situation or relationship or opportunity
that looked like the thing...smelled like the thing...walked like
it...talked like it...everything about it literally reeked of being the THING...

BUT

In the pit of your stomach you knew it wasn't?

And you have absolutely no rational justification to walk away
from whatever (or whomever) it is.

And you are left with a feeling of 'eating away at you dread' if you walk
toward whatever (or whomever) it is.

This can happen with everything from money making opportunities, relationships,
career moves etc.

When this happens your mind starts loudly arguing equally for 2 points...
one side of your brain shouts, 'WALK AWAY...you know it's not the THING
and if you go toward it you'll end up finding out at some point and you'll have
to run screaming into the hills...leaving only a dust cloud behind. Why waste your time?'

You are tempted by this side...because it has a point and knows you well.

BUT

The other side of you head whispers 4 words over and over and over and over and over...

'What if you're wrong? What if you're wrong? What if you're wrong?

You are equally as tempted by this argument because if you are human one of
your deepest fears is that you'll miss something.

So what do you do?

The final outcome has always been that my instinct was right...

So, the question I have for you is...

When you think back...has your gut or your head ultimately been right?

How can you use that to listen to your instincts and take inspired action in your life now?
