How listening to your intuition can help you in your business and in your life in general ?
Do you know how to listen to your intuition?
What is intuition?
From my experience I define intuition as a deeper feeling of knowing, I may not see how everything is going to happen or when it is going to happen, but I know it will and I follow that feeling of knowing.
Steve Jobs once said: “ You can’t connect the dots looking forward, you can only connect them looking backwards so you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in the future, you have to learn to trust your intuition.
Your head is always going to rationalize what is good and what is bad, what if it is not going to work, how it should be, must be, why it can’t work, but as I say your heart knows , that’s your intuition deeper knowing without seeing! That’s the secret a lot of successful entrepreneurs and business owners, leaders in companies learned ??. They learned how to trust their intuition.
For the first time I trusted my intuition and I didn’t even know at the time that I’m following my intuition, or I just couldn’t explain it. I was 26 and I decided to move to New Zealand from Czech Republic. I knew I’m not coming back, I had no evidence of how it is going to happen but I just knew it. It wasn’t logical at all, I was just following my feeling and at the time I had no knowledge of mind and brain science, heart coherence, neuroscience. I knew nothing about this, so see we all have access to it naturally, but some of us have courage to follow that inner knowing that feeling and some of us let fear to control our decisions with too much rationalizing.
Second time that inner knowing my intuition, that voice saved my life and my daughter’s life. Again, I at the time I knew nothing about it. I was in very bad place, I was very sick, stressed living in fight or flight 24/7 . My daughter was 3-year-old at the time, and I didn’t fix properly mirrors in my car. As I drove with my daughter at the back of the car. I was going through dangerous exit on motorway. And when I was changing lines I checked in the mirror as we do if there is a car coming , because my mirrors were not fixed properly I couldn’t see the car coming with the speed of 80km this is motorway and I was about to change the lines and at this moment I’ve heard very quiet voice “ Look again” usually I don’t look twice I just have one good look. Somehow, I trusted that voice and looked again I was probably 2cm away from crushing into another car coming 80km towards me by changing lines.
If I ignored this quite voice, you can call it your spirit or inner knowing I wouldn’t be writing this article.
Now that I have been studied mind and brain science, neuroscience, ontology, psychology, epigenetics and more for about 3 years and I also teach it, so I trained myself how to connect to my intuition all the time. I let that deeper knowing guide me in everything and I can tell you it works 100% all the time. When I try to control and disconnect from my intuition nothing is working and everything is hard!! I learened how to fully trust it!
I know someone who didn’t trust their intuition and they were aware of it, they just choose not to trust it and let their rational mind to rationalize too much, in their business and as result they lost thousands.
So, as you see it worth it to learn how to trust your intuition especially if you are in leadership position or a business owner. Every successful person will tell you that! Because at the end we are human BEINGS NOT DOINGS!
So how you can learn how to trust your intuition?
It start with quieting your mind and getting present, connecting to your heart that’s where your intuition is, in your heart ?? . When there is too much noise in your mind you won’t hear that quite voice that is tyring to guide you the way that will work for you the best.
Everything that occupy time and space in your mind will pull you away from your intuition. And I’m referring here to unbalanced perceptions.
Your perceptions are your beliefs, your beliefs are feelings stored in your heart. Heart itself has 40,000 neural circuits that feel and think independently of your cranial brain. So first you need to balance your perception about past events, so you are not living and thinking in the past.
All those unbalanced survival emotions of guilt, shame, anger, fear, resistance, resentment are going to occupy time and space in your mind as a result you want see the full picture and you won’t have access to your intuition. You won’t just hear that voice because your mind is going to be overcrowded with judgments about how things should be, must be, should have been and so on.
Intuition that deeper knowing is always present and to be able to hear it you need to get present ?? otherwise you will miss on opportunities in your life either personal or professional, simply because you won’t go for it!! You won’t see it! You would be too much preoccupied what if it will not work, or what others will think of me! Or who Am I to say something and so on….
Now your perspective that’s how you view things, so if your perception is unbalanced you are not going to allow yourself to view things from different angles and you will be stuck in your thought reality not seeing the full picture.
Your perception (your beliefs) form your perspective , your perspective form your thoughts and your thoughts creates your reality and it all based on feelings!!
Changing your perception gives you the possibility to turn every experience into deep feeling of gratitude. When you choose different perspective how you see things you will have different thoughts about everything.
To achieve this, you need to know how to ask correct questions that will balance your unbalanced perceptions or I call it sometimes emotional baggage from the past.
If you feel you have unresolved emotional baggage from your past and you hide something you are not authentic in some arrears of your life, remember secret will hold power over you, just imagine that on the top of your normal weight you are wearing 100kg more, that’s what unbalanced emotional baggage does!
That means you are missing on core aspects of being:?

Integrity - which is wholeness, you can’t be whole if you carry secrets and emotional baggage.
Responsibility- you will never take full responsibility if you have unhealthy relationship with integrity because you will try to hide your flaws or shadows instead of embracing them, loving them and learning, growing from them.
If you are missing integrity and responsibility you are not authentic, you may think you are but on your subconscious level you are not , and that’s subconscious mind that drives our behaviour, actions and decision not our conscious. So, you need to bring unconscious to conscious first.
And if you are having unhealthy relationship with integrity, authenticity and responsibility you will not live to you heigh potential, to your higher purpose and you will regret it later in life but it can be too late because life is short ??
Let’s have a look today at forgiveness, we all have in life someone to forgive including ourselves. And what I come across a lot that we are forgiving only on our conscious level because it is good to forgive, we learn that from school and our parents that we need to forgive in life.
So, on our conscious level we do forgive, but here is the problem if you don’t forgive in your heart and remember I said that your heart has 40,000 neural circuits that feel and think independently of your cranial brain. So if you just forgive with your head or conscious mind nothing will change. Because feeling in your heart is going subconsciously drive your reactions to particular events or person or both.
So how you can forgive in your heart?
First it is good to internalize that if you don’t forgive in your heart, you are giving them power to control how you feel and how you feel you make decision and take actions. So, you give someone the power to control your life.
If you don’t let go of emotional baggage of guild, shame and so on those energies which are emotions are stored in your body energetic centres if undealt with for long period of time they will put your sympathetic and parasympathetic system out of balance, and it will lead to various disease and conditions. This is by the way proven by science (you can learn about epigenetics if you want to know more).
So, instead of forgiving someone for what you perceive they did or didn’t do , it is wiser to discover or uncover hidden order ( there is order in everything) in this way you are able to appreciate them for who they are and see them as a teacher in helping you to grow, to learn and master your life.
I have done that for myself I have authentically connected to my heart and I have seen the hidden order and all synchronicities and I felt nothing but LOVE in regards to my past experiences.
Judging others is often the result of illusions about how you perceive others are suppose to be or should be.
Remember perfection is in both sides. You need both sides so call good and bad of yourself and everything else.
You can ask yourself following questions:
How did it helped me in my life?
How did it serve me?
What did I learned?
What is the upside to it ?
What did I not have to do or what did I get to do that benefited me because of it?
And get present and honest with yourself because there is positive side to it, everything has two sides and if you can’t find it you are just ignorant of it.
Something to note about loving yourself. I know a lot of people who say that “I love myself” what they actually do they love their Ego. There is difference between loving your Ego and connecting to your Sprit to your heart and loving yourself from that place.
To help you see if you really love yourself just observe if you judge someone, you don’t love yourself, if you are getting triggered by someone again you don’t love yourself. If you truly love yourself and you are in love with your life you will not waste your vital energy on judging ?someone or being triggered by someone or something. Simply because you are going to feel so good about yourself and love every part of you, so nothing to judge and feel ashamed of ??
