Fear and intuition can disguise themselves as almost the same feeling. It’s super hard to tell the difference between the two when faced with a difficult decision. Just thinking about the outcome of the decision gives you major anxiety. Is this a gut feeling trying to get your attention, or a past fear coming up?

Gut feelings

For example, you have met somebody that is showing a lot of interest in you. You like them, but something feels off. You can’t really put your finger on it, but there is something weird about this person. They have never done or said anything to you to make you feel this way, but you still can’t shake that feeling.

The more you get to know them, the weaker that initial feeling gets. It never completely goes away, but you can ignore it at some point. They are always super nice and helpful and everybody else seems to like them. You forget about your gut feeling and continue being around this person. It must have been something in yourself that is causing to think this way, right?

Fear response

Second scenario: you dream of a different life and constantly work towards your new future…
