There’s a situation that I’m involved and have been involved in for the past year where I’m really trying to trust my intuition. It’s kind of hard, because though I feel very strongly about continuing in one direction, people around me feel like I should go in the other direction.
I’m a little afraid that maybe I’m just lying to myself, or seeing what I want to see, but I REALLY don’t think that’s it. My intuition has NEVER led me astray before. Even if things didn’t work out completely like I thought they would, what I originally thought was correct was still always right in some big way.
Besides, I’ve been correct about everything thus far concerning this situation. I wish I could just trust myself – trust that I know what is good for me better than others do. I’m trying to just keep what I think about it to myself and not discuss/get advice from other (i.e.: try to confirm what I already know to be true based on others’ opinions). Because most of the time when I do bring up the situation and how I see things, people try to talk me out of it and I end up second guessing myself. But I’m an adult and I have to make my own decisions.
It’s so hard to trust my intuition when it’s so completely against what everyone else thinks. It’s scary and I feel so alone. What if I make a wrong choice by following my intuition? Could I really be so horribly wrong? I’d feel so stupid and everyone would say “I told you so!” But if I don’t follow it, I know I’ll forever be wondering what if, and if there is one thing I hate more than anything, it’s to regret things.
I think I already know the answer…what I have to do in this situation…I have to trust myself.
