Imagine yourself in the different scenarios at hand. And then, consider: what would she do? EXPLORING… TRY ON THE DIFFERENT OPTIONS. Who are you when you are at your best? When you are operating from love, versus fear?Ĭonnect to that version of yourself. In these situations, I often use a variety of tools and systems to explore the different possibilities at hand, to help lead me to the best decision based on the information I have at the time. There are timelines and deadlines and normal life constraints that aren’t always conducive to waiting for an answer to appear. In the rhythm of normal work and life, it’s not always possible to wait around for this moment of instant clarity to strike. While I was sitting inside of an office, there was a moment in which I swear I saw the clouds part and a big ray of light shine through, at which point I said, “my last day will be May 1st.” Once again, there was no decision - just a deep sense of knowing, and the words came out of my mouth from what felt like a source greater than myself.Īll of this clouds parting, light shining through, voices from above type of clarity is great, but it means that decisions can be incredibly challenging for me when this isn’t present. The same thing happened the day I put in my notice at my job. My friend just looked at me with a knowing smile. When my friends arrived to pick up their dog, there were two dogs, instead of one. There was no decision - just a deep sense of knowing. When I met him, I knew on an intuitive level, long before I knew on a conscious level, that he was my dog. As if the words had come to me from somewhere outside myself, I asked if I could meet him. I had been picking up two friends’ dog from doggie daycare when I saw his face on a crumpled up flyer, taped to the front counter. And precisely one week after saying this, I had a dog. In fact, I’d just said to a coworker the week before, “It’s amazing to me that single people get dogs, because I imagine that they really inhibit your freedom!” I was single.
When I adopted my first pup, I wasn’t looking for a dog. Many of the answers to the biggest questions I’ve ever asked myself have come to me intuitively, which meant that I really didn’t need to decide, because I just knew. Confession: I am not always good at making big decisions.
