INTUITION
Intuition is like a flash of light. In that instant of pure white, all understanding is present. The whole idea. Complete.
But the vision only lasts an instant. And only fragments of the complete idea remain, in the form of feelings. And the feelings talk to the brain. And the brain begins the [sometimes lifelong] process of defining the feelings generated by intuition.
Intuition is never wrong.
If you're lucky, the brain will generate answers that clearly define the feelings, thus confirming your intuition.
If you're not so lucky, your brain will resist the process of definition by intellectualizing, try to bury the feelings, and you will eventually learn to mistrust your intuition.
But intuition is never wrong.
When you choose the second route, you're basically screwing yourself.
