Hi reader,

We’re not that removed from the intuitive, gut-based animal kingdom

I love when we’re reminded of that

The 5G infrastructure

The rule of law

Pants

All those useful things that make us more “civilized” are also the things that can give the illusion of us being separate, not together

As if my pain matters more than your pain

Or nature is subservient to us

Or we are not the same

So when your gut says that you should pause, reflect, or ask questions

When your intuition argues with what you’re about to do

When something says “No”

Then it becomes an invitation to follow your instinct

To build it up like an atrophied muscle

And to see around corners

How many times has your intuition saved your ass from trouble?

And how many times would you have avoided trouble if you would have listened? 👂🏾

On this encore BringYourWorth.tv, I break down why a plan is not a strategy. Here's why plans don't work (do this instead!) 👇🏾
