Our instincts might not be as good as we hope.
Going with your gut is thrilling. It’s personal, vulnerable and brave. And if it’s getting you what you seek, keep at it.
But often, our instincts are a way of hiding, undermined by a lack of knowledge. If you haven’t done the reading and can’t see what the alternatives might be, instincts might be all you have left. And if you’ know the best way and persist in going with a hunch, it might Resistance, a trap put in place by the part of you that feels like an imposter and is hesitant to do too well.
If ‘my way’ isn’t helping you get to where you’re going, it could be that the highway is a more direct route.
