There is no nice way to say this: a big part of the things you heard about how to be successful in your career are mostly myths and false ideas. Here are a few thoughts on success that might help you achieve what you want from life.
Firstly, no offense to that little, subtle voice in your head, but it’s not always right. Intuition doesn’t come out of nowhere – it is formed in time based on some patterns and the experiences you’ve had.
For example, if you tried to do something a lot of times and it never worked, it’s normal for you intuition to tell you not to do it again. But the world is in a permanent state of movement and evolution, so those ugly days in the past may not be so relevant today.
If you work in a predictable environment, like being an accountant, your intuition may be trustworthy, but for the rest of us (stockbrokers, judges, journalists, etc.), decision-making is a more complicated process, it takes more than just to “follow your heart”.
A study showed that over 90% of University professors believed that their performance at their jobs was above average. Some tend to be too confident, while others get stuck with ideas that seem safe. The key is to ask for feedback, and not just to receive compliments.
Ask for opinions from your colleagues and even from your opponents. When it comes to feedback, your instinct may appear and tell you to ask for opinions for support, not for a correct view on the situation.
The thing is, you don’t need a crowd to cheer for you, you need constructive criticism for you to be able to fix what’s wrong and to learn how to be better at your job. In other words, what do you prefer?
To listen to negative feedback, or to go on with your wrong idea and to fail?
The other important aspect about success that everyone gets wrong is the risk factor. Okay, it’s great to have courage, but that doesn’t mean that you should act like you’re a drunk, blindfolded driver.
We all need to have self-confidence, it will always help us when making a decision. But what’s more valuable is to know when to question ourselves.
Most successful people are against big risks and they prefer to analyse their ideas before making a big step.
Success is not so much about taking a huge risk, as it is about testing the territory with small steps. You don’t necessary have to take a big leap, quit your job or your studies immediately and go for your big idea.
People who keep their jobs in parallel with their start-ups are 33% more likely to be successful than those who take huge risks, not thinking before acting.
Be wise!

Intuition is a strong force that we have trouble explaining. It's a factor in why A.I. aren't capable of certain things humans are. I follow my intuition, confidently, and it seems to reward me. Dreams show the way sometimes, gut feelings, vibrations - chills.
Utilize the intuition and you will have the power of the celestial bodies at your disposal.
To succes you need more then just intuition and courage and if we want or not to admit we need a lot of Luck as well!😉
Good luck man!
Same for you Ionut! Sometimes a bit of luck can transform simple things in magic!
Have a great week-end!

I was little bit upset . But after reading this article i'm feeling okay and better now. Thanks for sharing .😊😊
I am glad my article helped you.
Nice post thanks for sharing....
I can't count the number of times my intuition failed me, you are right..
certainly not precisely the courage that brings us always want to try, although sometimes fall many times
The decision that are thoughtful are more likely to be right. At time intuition plays an important part in leading you to the correct path but sanity comes first.
I like your blog which is full of constructive thoughts.
This is what I have always said, you keep you main job while doing other activities in your free time that will take time to profit you. It's like steemit, we all know we can't make a living of this at the beginning, but when time and effort pay off, you will have it made. I think we should have active and passive investments, the active ones will provide us with enough money to buy basic things, like food, medicines,bills, etc. And the passive ones will grow over time and reward you in the future. Patience is key!

good advise sir thank you
Very good
You are right, self-confidence and intuition can help during the path to success. And courage is undeniably important. So many opportunities we miss out on for fear of failure. But Steemit many ways are not working. This is a special place, with special paths to success. And everyone has their own way here. All individually. But the three components of success are always the same: confidence, courage and intuition.
That's so true! Beautiful article. When we do what we love we have more chance to meet success!
I do believe in intuition especially when it comes to people and the way how I feel about them. But I totally get your point. If we fail at something, we tend to create this false belief that we aren't good. And we carry this belief for years. Many things are a matter of practice where we have to try many times before we are successful. In my opinion, one of the important thing when it comes to success is commitment and perseverance. The most extraordinary things take time, lots of time. If we can be patient and consistent in our actions, success is only a matter of time.
Very absorbing article! Thank you very much.
I still cannot find the correct balance between the left brain and right brain thinking! I guess things are always changing so there is no hard formula for this!
Cheers.
Time to be wise and bold enough thanks for this great courageous post
Great work @jwolf! I think - great success depends on humility and a desire to serve people! You always inspire me! Thank you for your support.
It's interesting, but
Intuition as a sum of past experience is probably not the only
explanation of the phenomenon of intuition.
