Lesson 268: Follow Your Knows

Today’s lesson is about following what you know. I feel like it’s following your intuition or gut feeling. Basically, Stephanie Bennett Vogt lives by an easy tool:

  • If it feels right, I do it.

  • If it doesn't feel right, I don't do it.

  • If I don't know, I wait until I know.

Personally, I sometimes forget to trust my instincts. Usually when I don’t follow that feeling, I get mad at myself for not following my own knowing. It usually ends with me getting into a messy situation or having to back track and re-do a task.

I think the lesson is simple and a reminder of just following what feels right. When people try to talk you out of something, keep following your own feelings. I think it can be a trap when people are coercing you or trying to convince you to do something that you don’t necessarily want to do.

I needed this reminder today. It’s so simple but effective.
