Today we look at #WeighingDecisions…
…weighing #GutFeeling and #EmpiricalEvidence.
Gut feeling makes you go: “I have a bad feeling about this!”
Imagine the results: One step into the room, one quick glance, a sinking feeling of dread takes root. Despite the convincing show before you, something feels off, and you leave despite being mocked. Moments later, your intuition is confirmed, as you were almost scammed or killed. Relief washing over you, you thank your lucky stars, seeking other ways to better your detection of danger, and also opportunity.
Empirical evidence makes you go: “I have the statistical proof for this!”
Imagine the results: While you value the human power of intuitive gut calls, the sophistication of society also warrants the mastery of data. Through frameworks and machines that filter beyond human senses, new insights can be surfaced from the depths of text and numbers. Doubly armed against critics, your decisions win the day, standing the test of time and steering you to success.
Simple thoughts like these can create a world of difference, a different timeline.?
I used to wonder about the bitter divide between human intuition and statistics. Akin to religion versus science, folks I knew believed in either one or the other. While either has its pros and cons, I cannot deny that at times data insights have saved my life, as have warnings from the gut.

By choosing to employ both methods through the flow of daily decisions, not only could I close better deals; I could also better empathise with those who preferred either way. As life is a mystery we have not fully explored, trusting instinct and logic can yield unexpected surprises of benefit.?
“Listening to the data is important... but so is experience and intuition. After all, what is intuition at its best but large amounts of data of all kinds filtered through a human brain rather than a math model?” – Steve Lohr
