If You Aren’t Sure

About something.

Then I guess that’s an indication you shouldn’t be doing it.

Have you ever gone against your gut?

Or do you always listen to it?

Or have you not listened then regretted it?

I definitely have and oh boy did I regret it.

Re: If You Aren’t Sure

I have a friend request on fb....my gut is telling me ,remember what happened the last time.

So today I am listening to my gut..and not accepting.

I have been to soft in the past..I must be toughening up.😀

Re: If You Aren’t Sure

I never accept 'friend' requests from people I don't know.

Just recently I have been having requests from very good looking military men. Oh wow! they looked so handsome in their uniform.

I know it's all a sham of course but what do they get out of it I wonder?

I always listen to my gut feeling & it's mostly right.

Maybe they want to start an online romance & when I've fallen hopelessly in love with them out comes the request for me to send them money!!

I know some women do fall for this - OMG they must be desperate!!

Good post Carol.

I never used to listen to my gut...but I do now.

It was a long time coming....I’ve always had to learn the hard way.

I think or know I have a real problem at times with..” stubbornness “ it does me no favours.

Re: If You Aren’t Sure

The gut is known as the second brain. I always pay attention it, and also "If in doubt, do nowt" plays a huge part in my decision making.

Re: If You Aren’t Sure

I listen to my instincts - always have. It seems to work. Doesn't mean I don't take chances though - sometimes the instincts lean that way!

Re: If You Aren’t Sure

I often wonder why it took me so long to listen to my inner being/ gut.

Oh well....at least I’m listening now.

Re: If You Aren’t Sure

I try not to listen to Emperor Mong, he is the voice in my head that ‘advises’ me…e.g
Me: ‘oh oh ..petrol warning light has come on…I better pull in in at the next motorway service station and get some petrol’

Emperor Mong: ‘ Nah, don’t bother, this car does millions of miles to the gallon and you have more than enough to get home to your loving family’

Sometime later.

Me: ‘ Hello AA? Yes..sorry I have come to a stop on the M6 near Junction 9..I have run out of petrol’

Doh! He does it every time, I shouldn’t listen.
