It’s no secret that listening to and acting on your intuition IS THE key to getting everything you want in life. The problem is, most people don’t listen to it or follow it … even when they think they are.

Avoid These Two Big Intuition Mistakes

1. The Amygdala Atrophy

Let’s say that you know that the answer to growing your business is, getting a mentor, and you’re on a sales call to that mentor. You have a great conversation, and you know in your heart that coach is right for you, but as soon as they mention their fee, your gut starts to churn.

You’re terrified. You know you want the coaching but your brain is saying, “What if I spend this money and it doesn’t work?” “What if I can’t do this. I’ve wasted my money. I have bills to pay”,

So you do nothing. And six months later you’re worse off than you were before.

Here’s the thing …

That fear wasn’t your intuition. Your intuition was the ‘aha’ knowingness you had earlier. The fear and the self-talk was your reptilian brain kicking in because you’re absolutely terrified of stepping out of your comfort zone and taking that very step that will lead you to a breakthrough.

Or maybe this has happened to you.

2. The Adrenalin Addiction

Let’s say you get on a sales call with a LinkedIn coach. You’re listening to them and early on the piece you hear a quiet voice in your head that says, “No. Facebook.”

But even though that voice in your head is saying, “No”, and you know in your heart that Facebook is the answer, you’re mesmerised by what the coach has to say. They’re telling you all the things you want to hear about how amazing you are and how you can make huge amounts of money with their help.

So you’re pumped and you spend the money. You stop all the work you’re doing on Facebook and focus on doing what the LinkedIn coach says. And – CRICKETS.

Has that ever happened to you?

When, you have gotten so carried away by adrenalin and said YES to something that (in hindsight) you know was an intuitive NO.

Here’s the thing …

Intuition ISN’T emotional.

It’s a silent ‘aha-like’ knowing.
