Trust your hunches. They are usually based on the facts filed away just below the conscious level.
-Dr. Joyce Brothers
Instincts are these feelings you have, stating the fact even before your mind gets to tell you anything either on what's about to happen or what is happening presently. It is like a whisper in you hammering what your mind is yet to figure out.
So many times, we may want to do something and then we just seize to doing it even after so many persistence from people around us to do that particular thing till the extent that we may end up been seen as an unserious fellow who isn't ready to take a step in living better but then after a while, that thing ended up turning bad, making people lose themselves and what they've suffered to acquire in the long run. Just then, people tend to wonder how you got to know that thing won't result well.
Unknowingly to them that your instincts guided you through it and you were so calm to listen to it.
Instincts can sometimes be right and it can somehow be wrong to us. That is, it may not be everytime that our guts get to be right.
There are times when our instincts refuses to flow with somebody and no matter how we try to get close to them, it just keep whispering "NO" and at the end of the day, you find out that he or she wasn't worth moving close to or to be seen together in the first place and at times we may end up seeing it as "oh wow! This is such a a wonderful person so why was I not feeling the connection with him or her?"
It is not bad though that our instincts get it wrong sometimes and that's why we have to thread carefully when dealing with the information it gives us.
For someone like me, I trust my instincts so much that anytime I had an information from it, I know it's surely a right one and even if it ended up not totally been right then it's just a slight difference.
I've had times when I tested it, doing the opposite of what it tells me and at the end I regretted not listening to it. Just then you would hear me say, "and my instincts told me oo". I remember having a slight fight with a close person of mine for always going the opposite of what my instinct says which brings me regret afterwards and she would ask me of what I have gained from not following my instincts and staying disobedient.
For me, I was trying to justify it to be what I can rely on but at the end, it's always a lesson of not following what it says.
Take for instance, no matter how lenient I am with lending a hand of help either financially or whatsoever, when my instinct go against it especially in terms of loaning out, then I'm definitely not proceeding. I learned that in a hard way as well.
So for the past few months now, I've learned to stay true and obedient to what my instinct tells me BUT I ensure to act wisely if it's a negative warning it is issuing to me.
I can't still afford to be bad or lose relationships if it ended up been wrong so I act carefully and wisely.
This is why I have been able to manage the people I associate with, been able to escape a bad plot been planned against me or even saying things that ends up looking as if I got to know about a secret and this sometimes made some look at me like I have an evil spirit. These are all works of my instincts.
