- Your initial gut instinct is the one you should invariably follow. Do not allow this primal barometer to be overruled by distractions or by overthinking a situation. Trust your gut, and your gut will reciprocate with intuitive reliability nearly every time it is called upon. Advanced metrics and grandmaster strategizing are almost never necessary to solve a problem, however difficult. They just add more nuisancey appendages to a troubling issue without shedding any beneficial light on it. Remember, there are a million possible solutions to any problem, but only one that is right. When in doubt, go with your gut and never look back!
