Accessing Your Intuition
One
strategy to expand your mind and expand your money is to
access your intuition. Dictionary.com defines intuition
as “direct perception of truth, fact, etc., independent
of any reasoning process; immediate apprehension.”
You may perceive your inner intuition as a feeling
in your body, or an emotion, or a picture in your mind,
or a voice in your head.
Your inner intuition KNOWS what you should do.
It is giving you “direct perception of truth”!
You don’t need to use logic or take time in making
a decision – it’s already there for you.
When you are not accustomed to noticing your intuition,
or when you ignore it, you may be easily swayed by the opinions
of other people. You want to collect more opinions to help
you decide, because you don’t have an inner certainty.
You may tend to follow what you think you “should”
do, which is another variation on relying on others (in
this case society at large, or your mom’s voice in
your head )
vs. relying on your own guidance.
Like any habit, intuition is a muscle.
The more you use it, the stronger it becomes. The more you
pay attention to it and the more often you rely on it, the
easier you can tune in to it and the more confident you
become in the wisdom it provides.
Here are some tips to help you access your intuition.
1. When and where do you most easily get your
best ideas? For some, it’s in the shower.
For others, it’s while walking or working out. For
me, it happens most often during the hour before bedtime,
while I’m going to sleep, or while I’m waking
up.
2. However and wherever you receive intuitive guidance,
start doing more of that accompanying activity weekly or
daily. You can easily spend a few minutes daily
focusing while you’re in the shower, or taking a walk,
to receive new ideas and guidance.
3. Take action on the ideas and guidance you receive.
When you move forward with those ideas and see
how well they work out, you’ll develop more faith
in this guidance.
Your intuition is part of your inner GPS – it guides
you to where you need to go, even when your conscious mind
is not sure of your exact destination! Your conscious mind
is not the repository of all your good ideas; your intuition
plays an important role in rounding out your guidance system.
CALL TO ACTION
Spend 5-10 minutes each day for the next week focusing
on your intuition, during whatever time and in
the place where it comes to you most easily. Keep a notebook
and pen handy, so you can jot down what you’ve received.
Review those notes after a week. I bet
you’ll find some great ideas in there!
Your inner knowing is always present and can support
you to make your best decisions. You just need
to turn to it and allow it to come through.

and know you’re making great decisions that are creating
the life you want? If you’d like support

Here’s how this Success Session helped entrepreneur
Teresa Giltner.
"After
speaking with Marcy, what I noticed most was the fact that
I was treating my business like a hobby and I was letting
others see it that way. So the biggest part of changing
my mindset was how Marcy had me to see what was getting
in the way or causing me to run my business this way. Changing
habits and my beliefs has helped me and will continue to
help me move forward with my business and make the success
that I want it to be!"
