With external cues we are hearing, seeing, touching, or being guided by something outside ourselves (or so it seems). With internal cues, we have to pay attention to our inner senses.
Our inner senses usually give us very accurate feedback if we learn to really listen.
- For example, if you are feeling a sense of heaviness or foreboding, you might need to slow down in order to delay a decision or to gain more time or information.
So many times we push through our feelings and deny or dismiss cues, and wind up making decisions that are counterproductive.
- A good rule of thumb is not to make important decisions when you’re angry, hurried, frustrated, tired, or in any other negative state of mind.
- If you are interviewing for jobs, and an office environment immediately makes you feel out of sorts, fearful, or apathetic, this is probably a sign of future dissatisfaction.
Re-source: Reanalyze
Begin to notice over the next few days what internal cues arise in different situations, such as tightening in the neck or stomach, clenching the jaws, loss of energy, shallow breathing, tapping fingers, crossed arms or legs, or irritation with sounds.
- Ask yourself, “What’s really going on? What am I picking up?”
- Intuition is our inner sense of perception.
