"Today, I recognize the infinite wisdom within me. I trust this wisdom in every decision I make."


Today, I recognize the infinite wisdom within me.  I trust this wisdom in every decision I make.
.
Learning to trust our “gut” feelings takes a lot of practice.  We tend to second guess ourselves in the face of certain data and facts that contradict what we feel on the inside.  And I don’t know about you, but I usually end up regretting any decision that goes against that gut feeling.  I believe we instinctively know on a spiritual level what is best for us.
We make hundreds or thousands of decisions daily.  Most of them require little effort like what we’re going to have for breakfast or what shirt we will wear to work that day.  Others, like buying a home or another large purchase, require more thought.  Even so, we have usually made up our mind before we know the facts or data based on intuition.  We are waiting for the data to justify our actions.
I’m still learning how to trust that inner voice…but when I do let go and trust it completely, it never guides me to the wrong place.  It’s kept me out of trouble on multiple occasions like when I felt I shouldn’t take a certain highway on a trip only to find later that there was an accident that would’ve tied me up for possibly hours.  Sometimes I’ll ignore the phone because I’m tired but that little voice will tell me to pick up because it’s important…and it’s usually right.  I’ve heard similar stories from dozens of people. 
So, connect to that voice and heed it well.  It will never lead you astray.
