Trusting Your Gut
What do you think of the mantra that says, "go with what feels right?" Should this truly guide your decisions? Relying solely on your feelings as a compass can lead you astray. There are studies and data that highlight the fallibility of our impulses, emphasizing the importance of engaging your rational faculties to discern what is true, good, and right. Acknowledging your emotions doesn't mean blindly reacting to them; it involves a conscious and deliberate process of discernment. Yes, listen to your gut, but hesitate to respond to it without contemplation.
Constantly aim to align yourself with the truth, cultivating inner strength and resilience, relying on your learned wisdom and practiced grace. Remind yourself of the power of rational discernment and embrace this skill. All around you people are enamored with their fleeting emotions, set yourself apart as one who is fully conscious, present, and focused on realities. Through conscious reflection and adherence to these principles, find liberation from external influences as well as the brief and temporary feelings that will come and go. Carefully discern the voices of your gut feelings and impose rational discernment upon your responses versus catering to emotional reactions. Trust your gut, but only after you have weighed it smartly.
