Are you an entrepreneur or business leader who want to get the edge on your competition?
Would you like to be able to create solutions that will always work and your clients will love?
How would you like to develop your 6th sense?
Most people are operating on intellect in business, but Intuition is a higher level of thinking and consciousness.
Einstein said that you cannot solve a problem at the same level of consciousness that created it, so moving from intellect to intuition can put you in a better position to solve problems.
Intuition is the new buzz-word in business and everyone from Branson to Buffet are touting its ability to guide and direct them to greater success and higher profits. But the understanding of what Intuition really is and how it can serve us in business and in life is deeply flawed. But it is more important to understand now, than ever before.
The speed at which business transforms and the amount of information we process as entrepreneurs, business people and leaders are unmatched in history.
The ability to be creative, think on the fly and make key business decisions with little time amidst the avalanche of external information is vital. Intuition is the natural intelligence that allows us to see ahead of the curve, to generate innovative ideas, to communicate powerfully and to do so without having to study spreadsheets or gather piles of data.
It is the skill we all possess that has the ability to guide us to greater business success, greater career satisfaction and more sustainable levels of innovation and service.
Here are five ways you can cultivate your intuition:
1. Follow your vision.
Your Vision is your “why” and your purpose. When you craft a meaningful and encompassing vision for your life, your business and your world, you can use it as a map for years to come.
If you use it, your vision will show you what is in alignment in your life and what is not.
Visualize the outcome of your actions.
2. Be mindful.
When you are mindful, you hear and listen to your intuition better because you are aware of your body's signals and you act quicker. Rather than thinking about what is next or what happened yesterday, you can be in the now, which is much more effective.
The more you are in the moment and present, the more time you will have. Meditation is an extension of mindfulness. It clears your mind of clutter and enables you to hear the small voice of your intuition.
3. Trust your gut.
This is a tricky one but you have to practice it until you get better. You will make some mistake along the way. One of the more challenging parts of trusting your gut is understanding the difference between a 'gut feeling' and a 'fear feeling'.
I once had a really good job, not stressful, no long hours, good pay and a company paid up BMW (also known as the silver bullet) and then I was approached by a head hunter to join a new start up. There was the risk factor of the start up no coming off the ground and me being left without a job but the prospect of building a company from scratch was so enticing. I mulled over it and I had a lot of gut pains and sleepless nights. I took the opportunity and it turned out pretty darn good.
Normal teachings on intuition would suggest that the gut pains are an indication that I should not take the job with the start up, but it was really the fear emotions I was feeling and fear actually points us in the direction that we should GO!
4. Let Go
Let go of things that are no longer working or viable.
Intuitive leaders do not spend a lot of time focused on things that don’t move the vision forward. They are able to elegantly move through difficult choices, perceived failures and situations that require them to jettison unnecessary protocol. They easily grasp the important lessons, which empower them to cultivate new plans of action and move forward with greater certainty and focus.
5. Tune in to synchronicity.
Listen to the cues your body gives you. Is there a burning sensation in your chest? Do you have butterflies in your stomach? Goose bumps? Did you see the same book title three times in a row? What is the song on the radio saying to you? Maybe you watched a movie and the main character seems to be speaking directly to your life.
There is a whole thread of messages and activity going on in the world just beneath the surface. If you tune into the little details, you may just find your way to answers you never expected.
If you’ve never put much stock in the power of intuition, you’ll be in for a pleasant surprise when you start to pay attention. Things that used to seem elusive will start to present themselves as opportunities. You’ll be able to make quick decisions that you don’t second guess. You’ll gain confidence and peace of mind.
