Trust your hunches. They're usually
based on facts filed away just below the conscious level.
Dr. Joyce Brothers
Listen to your intuition. It will tell you
everything you need to know.
Konosuke
Matsushita
The
creative
is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of
your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll
discover will be wonderful. What you'll
discover will be
yourself.
Alan Alda
Intuition can give you answers for ultimate
questions not verbally but existentially. You need not ask, What is truth?
Instinct won't hear, it is deaf. Intellect will hear but it can only
philosophize; it is blind, it can't see. Intuition is a seer, it has eyes.
It sees the truth there is no question of thinking about it. Instinct and
intuition are both independent of you. Instinct is in the power of nature,
of unconscious nature, and intuition is in the hands of the superconscious
universe, the consciousness that surrounds the whole universe, the oceanic
consciousness of which we are just small islands or better, icebergs,
because we can melt into it and become one with it.
~
Osho
Intuition does not always appear as the
ingenious breakthrough or something grandiose. Intuitive thoughts, feelings,
and solutions often manifest themselves as good old common sense. Common
sense is efficient.
Doc Childre and Bruce
Cryer
Sincerely surrendering to your heart intuition
gives you access to new intelligence and opens the door for new
possibilities. Add
heart
intelligence to your attitudes and conceptual understandings so the head
can operate with less limitation.
Doc Childre and Sara
Paddison, HeartMath Discovery Program

Konosuke
Matsushita
Panasonic's founder
Konosuke Matsushita said, "No matter
how deep a study you make. What you really have to rely on is your own
intuition and when it comes down to it, you really don't know what's going
to happen until you do it." His intuition was amazing. He saw markets before
they were there.
Once he listened to a group of his managers
present a convincing argument, buttressed with statistics, that first-year
production of a new foot warmer should be 50,000. Matsushita glanced over
the figures, quietly said: "A hundred thousand." The company made a hundred
thousand and sold them easily.1 ...

Matsushita's 10 Management Lessons
Steve
Jobs is one of the most successful
entrepreneurs
of our generation. His success story is legendary. Put up for adoption at an
early age, dropped out of college after 6 months, slept on friends floors,
returned coke bottles for 5 cent deposits to buy food, then went on to start
Apple Computers and Pixar Animation Studios.
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life," says Steve
Jobs. "Don't be trapped by dogma which is living with the results of other
people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own
inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and
intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
Everything else is
secondary."...

Case in Point
3M
Ram Charan and Noel Trichy in their book
Every Business Is a Growth Business write: "Many companies have
seemingly done well thinking from the inside out. 3M achieved legendary
success as an innovator by giving its
people room
to develop
their ideas in quasi-entrepreneurial fashion. For years, it ranked among the leaders of
FORTUNE's list of most admired companies. But during the first half of of the 90s, 3M
grew its
top line
less than 4% despite the brilliance of its entrepreneurial technologists.
There wasn't enough
feedback from the marketplace missing were the
insight into the customer's mind, and the intuitive
observations about needs that could have translated inventiveness into
powerful growth." In late 90s, new leadership got the company back on
track with
outside-in growth initiatives.
