Trust your intuition

Cliff Brenner was a highly creative thinker.
He was one of my clients at Philadelphia Electric.
I was one of his unofficial clients when I had a problem.
Over the years we have talked for hours.
Often together over lunch, later by long distance.
Cliff lived in Philadelphia. I live in South Carolina.
We always talked on April 30, his birthday and mine.
No matter what the obstacle was, Cliff helped me solve it.
Cliff’s gone on to that great creative agency up there.
I truly miss his sound reasoning and creative solutions.
There has to be at least one Cliff Brenner in your life.
Maybe you are a Cliff Brenner in someone else’s life.
Many of us limit our intuition by becoming super analytical.
We analyze problems to death. And it prevents bold decisions.
Call it “paralysis by analysis”. It’s what bean counters do.
My wife — and business partner — is highly intuitive.
I have learned to trust her judgment about my crazier ideas.
Sorry, guys, but most women are more intuitive than we are.
Some seem to have forgotten we have an intuitive side.
Women trust their instincts and feelings.
They listen to their “inner spirit” and trust it.
Here’s one way to fine-tune your intuition:
Think about how you “feel” — not just what you “think”.
If it doesn’t smell right, it probably isn’t right.
Listen to your “inner spirit”. It will guide you.
That’s a God-like sense we’re endowed with.
It’s the Great Creator inside every one of us.
