17 comments

1. I just know

2. I only trust my gut when there isn’t time to stop and consider if my instincts are wrong.

3. Usually after the fact

4. There’s no explanation, you just know.

5. Whatever made you post this is true, trust your instinct

6. You get it with time.

7. You don’t know.

8. Same way I know not to trust a fart

9. Only trust it when it’s telling you you’re hungry.

10. When my guts are bubbling, I know it’s time to find a bathroom.

11. intuition is a skill that is developed. you’ve gotta just take those risks, sometimes they pan out sometimes they don’t

12. When there isn’t a better option. “If you can’t do something smart, do something good.”

13. I always trust my gut! I don’t always act on it immediately, sometimes I need to assess and collect data to support what it is telling me first..

14. I always trust my gut, keeps things less stressful

15. I literally don’t know what a “gut feeling” or “trusting your gut” is. I think about something and decide logically what I should do. There’s no feeling or intuition involved in the process at all.

    I have never had the sensation of just knowing something, everything I figure out is through trial and error.

16. When I have to start talking myself to do something or get the nerve up. There’s a reason why your facilities get upset. Think of it as a spider sense.

17. If it’s an area that I have expertise in then I trust it. If it’s an area I’m learning about, I usually trust it.

    If it’s something brand new, I do a gut check first…WHY did I have a gut reaction? After a moment of introspecting I either trust it or discard the feeling if I realize its nerves not instinct.
