Let Your Heart Do The Talking

Let Your Heart Do The Talking Lately I have been thinking a lot about intuition. You know, that gut feeling you get when you don’t have enough information to justify your actions. What exactly is intuition? Let your heart talk! rnIt is the ability to think with your heart instead of your head. In a nutshell, it’s what makes us smarter than machines. They also say it’s what makes woman smarter than men. Yes I said it. But notice I said “smarter,” not “more intelligent.” Men often focus on the mind while woman focus on the heart. Intellect is fact based, while intuition is not. Intuition is like a whole lot of facts thrown in a cooking bowl and whirled around; watching to see what might “connect.” Intuitive people can never convince an intellectual of anything, because they seldom have any proof. They don’t know how or why they know what they know. Intuition fails more than intellect, but that doesn’t mean intellect wins either. Christopher Columbus had intuition. So did Alexander Graham Bell. Nelson Mandela had intuition. So did Benjamin Franklin. It was intuition that told them to go where none has ever been. Don’t forget intellect, it still has its place. Just also remember to give intuition the credit it deserves. I hope to give you the courage to follow you heart because sometimes the thing that makes the least sense is exactly the thing YOU should do. - Martin Let your heart talk!
