Showing Compassion

“I want you to share your ideas and thoughts; I want you to disagree with me and tell me if you think there is a better way and show me!” Chalene Johnson

Being Intentionally Aligned with a Higher Purpose

“Great leaders don’t set out to be a leader… They set out to make a difference. Its never about the role-always about the goal.”

Having Intuition

A Sense of Humor

“Common sense and a sense of humor are the same thing, moving at different speeds. A sense of humor is just common sense, dancing.”

William James

THE POWER OF INTUITION

WHAT IS INTUITION?

• Intuition is hard to define, despite the

huge role it plays in our everyday lives.

• Sometimes individuals think of intuition as

being mystical or magical—paranormal

• r psychic.
• Skate Where the Puck’s Going, Not

Where It’s Been

Wayne Gretsky

“ ”

• -THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND SOMETHING

IMMEDIATELY WITHOUT THE NEED FOR CONSCIOUS REASONING OR

• -A THING THAT ONE KNOWS OR CONSIDERS

LIKELY FROM INSTINCTIVE FEELING RATHER THAN CONSCIOUS REASONING.

STEVE JOBS

“Intuition is more powerful than intellect.”

INTUITION IS THAT GUT FEELING

• You know something

is wrong.

• You know that you

need to check on someone.

• You know that you

must follow up on a situation.

• You just know that

your feelings about that person are justified.

INTUITION IS WHAT HELPED OUR ANCESTORS SURVIVE

We are here, in part, because

• ur ancestors relied on intuition

to keep them safe.

INTUITION PROVIDES THE CALM YOU FEEL WHEN YOU KNOW YOUR DECISION WAS THE CORRECT ONE

Even if others disagree with you.

INTUITION IS DIFFERENT FROM THINKING AND REASONING.

Intuition is knowing without knowing

Intuition is different from logic and analysis

THE US MILITARY HAS BEEN INVESTIGATING THE POWER OF INTUITION

Can it help troops to make quick judgments during combat, thereby saving lives?

STUDIES IN 1990’S ON PHYSICIANS AND BUSINESS PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR RESULTS.

Practice makes perfect but no explanation had been put forward as to why this is the case.

NEUROSCIENTISTS HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THE BRAIN HAS DUAL SYSTEMS FOR RECEIVING AND ANALYZING SENSORY IMPRESSIONS:

• Conscious
• Unconscious

I INNER PICTURE BOOK OF STORED EXPERIENCES

• In the unconscious, our

sensory impressions are compared with previously stored images.

• We also remember the
• utcome
• Did it end well?
• Did it end badly?

The more variations of a situation we experience, the richer our picture book will be.

• And the greater the

probability we will recognize the situation at hand.

THE UNCONSCIOUS MEMORY BECOME LIKE A FILE CABINET

• Our

past experiences are “filed away.” We are given the

• pportunity to draw from what

we have learned unconsciously when we are faced with a new

• situation. The larger and more

expansive our “file cabinet” the more we are able to use our intuitive ability to deal with the new situation

• Our ‘file cabinet” becomes

filled with memories to build our intuitive ability when the memories are created with sensory impressions.

LARS-ERIK BJORKLAND

• We can never read or calculate our

way to all the knowledge and abilities we need in professional life.

• Practical experience in

indispensable

INTUITION DEVELOPS WHEN WE HAVE FAMILIARITY WITH A GIVEN SITUATION

• Results from the interplay of

expertise and experience.

• Intuition is the ability to cut

below the layers of information to get to the heart of an issue.

Katrine Kjaer Intuition is an “invisible gift.”
