Intuition

What is intuition? Where does it come from? Is it a gift from our collective intelligence? Does it come from a higher being? When you have a flash of intuition do you notice? Are you able to just wait and know it will come? We know it cannot be forced. Perhaps it is a form of creativity that connects with other souls? We often know it comes in silence at an unexpected time. It seems when you act on an intuitive thought that more of them arise. Perhaps there is a channel? Some people are more naturally intuitive than others.

We know that when we pay attention to patterns, systems, people, connections and are not attached to the process or outcome that an “answer” often comes to us.

Do we trust our intuition as leaders? Do our followers trust our intuition? It often depends on the relationship we form as well as the results we have created in the past.

Next time something comes to you from an unknown place, try holding for a fleeting second, the delight of that experience. Notice where you are, who you are with, what the situation entailed, and observc your state of mind.

Through the work of Myers and Briggs and the MBTI assessment, personalities are typed and sorted. One of the dichotomies that is sorted is by way of gathering information either through sensing or intuition. About 2/3 of the people prefer to gather information through their five senses. The remaining 1/3 prefer to gather information through their intuition. Tapping into our intuition and actually trusting it is hard for some. By doing so, you will be able to see differently.
