In Whom Do I Trust

“Follow your instincts. That’s where true wisdom manifests itself.
-Oprah Winfrey
Oprah says wisdom manifests when you follow your instincts. Oh, Oprah...if it were only that easy. But I guess she didn't say it was easy, did she?
I've been doing a lot of thinking about intuition. Actually, too much thinking about it. I may be overintellectualizing it. And under-sensing it. Whatever I'm doing, I have questions. This post is simply a list of my questions.
- How do you know what's intuition and what's fear? Anxiety has guided many of my decisions throughout my life. How can I be sure that what I might call intuition isn't anxiety in disguise?
- Related...what's my inner authority voice and what's the voice of my wounded inner child? My inner child, like anxiety, is a sneaky little thing.
- How can you tell if you're following your intuition or rationalizing decisions? Do intuition and reason work together?
- What happens if you think you're following your intuition and things go bad? And how do you know if things really are bad?
- How do you distinguish between your intuition, the ancestors, and the voice of God?
- How can I be guided if I don't know who/what to listen to?
- How can I cultivate recognition and trust in my intuition?
Alright. Anyone who can answer my questions wins the prize of helping me manifest wisdom like Oprah.
