Not all of us are happy with our life. We want to improve our situation, but often do not know how and what to do for this. Often we think that someone else will give us a hint on how to act in certain situations. We watch TV, ask friends. A problem arises, and we go to friends, tell, ask for advice or act in accordance with the stereotypes that exist in society. Only it often happens that for some reason the result of such a solution to problems 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 deep "I", as psychologists call it, is a source of intuitive clues that give us additional information in each specific life case, which we need in order to understand ourselves and solve our problems.
It turns out that we have a wonderful "helper" in ourselves, to which we for some reason do not listen. After all, no one knows our own problems better than ourselves. And only we ourselves can solve them. 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 connected with ours.
Unfortunately, we rarely listen to our intuitive source. The conflict begins with the fact of non-recognition, non-acceptance of the existence of such a part in us. Intuitive prompts come, but we do not 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, 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 to distinguish between intuitive prompts, for a start it is important just to know that this mechanism is in us and that it works. And of course it comes with experience. We need your experience, your mistakes, your findings.
Think back to a situation where you had 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 this, then somehow, and then the thought came …
In the midst of all this chaos, there is also an intuitive clue. It can be difficult to isolate it right away.
Now let's fast forward to the time when you have already made a choice, committed an act, and it became obvious whether you were mistaken or not. And if now you remember the sensations that arose at the moment of making a decision, then you will remember that the correct prompt was.
And if the decision was made incorrectly, then you just need to analyze why this hint was not taken into account. Didn't have faith in yourself? Fear interfered? Maybe something else? This analysis is very helpful in correctly identifying the intuitive clue in the future.
Think back to when you used the intuitive prompt correctly. What were your feelings? Remember what this prompt was, how it came, what feeling accompanied it? By these indirect signs, you can learn to recognize intuitive prompts.
Everything here is very individual and, unfortunately, a general algorithm as a sequence of actions simply does not exist.
As much as you are willing to observe your feelings and not reject any information that appears to you, no matter how unexpected it may be (intuitive prompts are often paradoxical), the likelihood increases that the true clue will be easier for you to recognize and you will make the right decisions. …
