How Not to Distrust Your Intuition - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites

Do you often get blindsided by people you think you know? For instance, a co-worker you’ve had a congenial relationship with suddenly treats you like you killed and ate their dog?

This is so uncomfortable, and when it feels sudden, it can leave you with hurt feelings as well as a distrust of yourself and your instincts.

Don’t distrust your instincts – learn to hear them. Maybe you, like me, were brought up to give people the benefit of the doubt. That’s a very nice way to be, and it works most of the time. We listen to their words, watch their behaviors, and usually they match.

Now and then, you’ll interact with someone whose words and behaviors don’t match, and you’re so used to giving people the benefit of the doubt that you do it here, too.

Wrong – chances are, your intuition nudged you and said, “maybe don’t trust this one so much” and you ignored the warning.

Don’t wait until someone’s bad behavior is pointed at you – when the words and behaviors don’t match, listen to your intuition. It won’t lie to you like that person just did.
