Develop your intuition and you can be sure about your decisions.
Intuition is vital to the empowered employee, says Garrett Boone, CEO of the Container Store, in Fast Company, but intuition certainly doesnt come to the unprepared mind. The more knowledgeable you are, the better informed you are, the better prepared you are to use your intuition.
So now, you may be thinking, Im going to have learn to be an intuitive, empowered employee. Its hard to keep up with the buzz, the fad du jour.
However, intuition is no fad. Its an EQ competency, and EQ matters more to your career success and life happiness than your IQ. And the good news is EQ can be developed over your lifetime.
Do you have intuition? Ive never coached anyone who didnt have some. They just needed to hear it described so they realized theyd always gone on hunches, and gut feelings, and survival instincts, and, yes, even good vibes.
All too often this comes out when we say,
I knew … the market was going to fall I knew … she wasnt the woman for me I knew … he was a crook I knew … it would never work out I knew … better than to do that
Until you get acquainted with your intuition, that phrase will most often come out as a V-8 afterthought I coulda use my intuition!
Intuition can be defined as knowing about something in other than cognitive ways knowing without knowing how you know. If you develop your intuition instead of regretting you didnt use it, youll be saying, My intuition says dont do that, and Sorry, but Im going with my hunch of this one.
How do you develop your intuition? Professional Intuition Coach Nancy R. Fenn offers the following beginning exercises:
When the phone rings, guess whos calling before you pick up the phone. If a tool or article is missing, let it come to you while you go on about your business. Before you get the mail, decide on at least one item that will be in the mail. Guess what time your spouse, child or roommate will walk in the door. At any given time during the day, relax and try to guess exactly what time it is without looking at your watch or a clock.
Heres an exercise from Nancy: Think of a problem youre having that youd like guidance on. Stand perfectly still and see what changes first in your environment, i.e., dog barks, curtains blow in the wind, ambulance goes by, baby laughs, leaf falls to the ground, bird fly overhead to the left. Interpret this event symbolically as the answer to the question.
What an exercise like this does, is force you to still the logical, rational and very limited neocortex, so other parts of your brain can work.
Work with an intuition or EQ coach to develop your intuition. People whove developed theirs say they know its intuition because they feel absolutely sure. What a great feeling!
