Everyone has that sense when they are either involved in doing certain things or doing something with people and they just feel like they can do it. What pisses you off?This is a different frame than the first question but you need to ask yourself this. What makes you go Why is t his like this? There is some type of emotion that gets triggered, she said.What scares the sh-t out of you?Forleo told Ladders, Is there some career or activity like writing, music, starting a company, whatever it is, that the notion of doing it makes you frightened? If you can find that, you know it is something worth pursuing. That fear is really a sense of intuition.Forleo said in a previous interview, One practice I have when looking at a situation is to ask myself, Should I move ahead? If everything in me starts to feel contracted, if I feel my shoulders coming down, if theres just an internal no, I can feel that thats not what I should do.On the other hand, if theres a sense of expansion, even if its subtle, if something in me says, Oh my goodness, this would be great - Im scared, I dont know if I can do it, but it would be amazing, then I know my intuition is telling me yes. Theres always fear. But if youre silent enough and still enough to listen to your intuition, youll al ways go in the rightdirection.
