I recently wrote a post where I listed different areas and different ways you can use your intuition. I received a lot of feedback saying how helpful the list was, so here are some more places and ways to use your intuition.
When Driving:
- You are stopped at a red light. The light turns green, but you have a feeling that you should wait before you proceed. A truck can’t stop and ends up going through the red light.
- You’re driving in your neighborhood and you see a mental image of a little boy running into the street to catch his ball. You slow down, and two houses later, you see a ball roll into the street, followed by a little boy.
- You just had your car checked out and the mechanic said everything was all right. You are on your way out of town, and you have the feeling something isn't right. You stop at your mechanic again and he discovers an oil leak.
At the Grocery Store:
- In the produce section, you discover that your hand tingles when it touches the freshest produce.
- There are two check out lines, a long one and a short one. Your intuition tells you the longer line will be faster, but you ignore it and go to the shorter line. Your intuition was right--the check out scanner in the short line malfunctions and stops working.
- The store is out of your favorite dish washer soap, and you have a feeling that there’s more in the back. The clerk insists there is none in the store room, but you ask him to please check again. The clerk comes back with the soap; a new shipment had just arrived.
At the Park:
- It’s a busy day at the local park and you’re running late for the soccer game. You are thinking you will have to park in "the back 40," but your intution tells you to drive up to the front row. There’s just one parking place left, just for you!
- It’s the day of the big family reunion. The sun is shining and the forecast says nothing about a rainstorm. You have the feeling you should take your umbrella, but think that that would be ridiculous. In the middle of the family reunion there’s a cloudburst of rain, and you get soaking wet while running to your car.
- You take your dog to the park for a walk. She sees a squirrel, pulls the leash out of your hand, and starts running. You run after her, but soon you can't see her anywhere. You mentally call her and tell her to come back towards you, and you’ll meet her at the stream. By the time you reach the stream, she’s there waiting for you.
I hope this gives you some more ideas on how to use your intuition. Consider starting an intuition journal and recording your intuitive successes. I think you’ll be surprised at how often you subconsciously use your intuition!
