What Should You Trust?

Trust your gut.

It’s not always easy, but your instincts, those that sit in the pit of your gut, are usually right.

Hopefully your gut doesn’t look like that one, but even if it does, trust it. At least when it comes to making business and life decisions. Food choices…that’s another story.

    I think instincts are usually self-serving and are great for business decisions. Life decisions? Maybe not.

    My instincts are always wrong when it comes to relationships. :)

    Maki – hhhm…probably can’t help you in the relationship space, but I was thinking about life decisions like what you want to be when you grow up and things like that (not that you’re not grown up! *smile*)

    I’ve found more and more both in biz and non-biz… the gut instinct for me is usually the smart move.

    But just in case… ben you might want to consider sit-ups :)

    I don’t even want to look at that thing, let alone trust it! But I’ll give you this — it was a tremendous attention getter.

    Genevieve – thanks. That was, of course, the point. Draw the person in to read what I’m saying.

    Greg – um…um…(rushes to make sure the camera is still secure in its secret location.)
