“If you need help or advice, ask for it, but don't worry too much about hurting other people's feelings by not doing what they say. If your gut says no, trust it. Do what seems right.” PeopleIfsNeedsHelpingFeelingsSeemsAsksHurtWorryToo MuchAdviceGutsNeed HelpHurting OthersNo Trust Author:Ariel Gore
“Perhaps randomness is not merely an adequate description for complex causes that we cannot specify. Perhaps the world really works this way, and many events are uncaused in any conventional sense of the word. Perhaps our gut feeling that it cannot be so reflects only our hopes and prejudices, our desperate striving to make sense of a complex and confusing world, and not the ways of nature.” WorldWayFeelingsCausesEventsPrejudiceComplexesStriveMake SenseDesperateGutsDescriptionConventionalConfusingAdequateRandomnessGut Feelings Author:Stephen Jay Gould

“We want to be known for having original ideas, inspired hunches, and gut feelings that make a difference. Indeed, a "well-honed sixth sense"' is considered a measure of the good clinician. But being a good doctor also requires sticking with the best medical evidence, even if it contradicts your personal experience. We need to distinguish between gut feeling and testable knowledge, between hunches and empirically tested evidence.” IfsWantNeedsWellsIdeasFeelingsDifferencesKnownEvidenceDoctorsOriginalsInspiredMedicalMaking A DifferenceGutsTestedPersonal ExperiencesHunchesOriginal IdeasGut FeelingsSixth SenseCliniciansGood DoctorsBest Medical Book:On Being Certain: Believing You Are Right Even When You're Not Source: On Being Certain: Believing You Are Right Even When You're Not
“There is a string attached to Maia Sharp's voice. And when she sings, you find that the other end is attached to your gut. Her voice is lush and sensual and the emotions she articulates resonate with the small feelings we have that sometimes are hard to face..there is an edge to her songs, but also a softness...she is lyrical and conversational at the same time. Her CD was the only one in my machine for a month. Her work inspires me to dig deeper.” EndsSometimesHardFeelingsFacesSongVoiceEmotionInspireMonthsMachinesEdgesDeeperSensualGutsStringsCdsLyricalSoftnessDig DeepLushStrings Attached Author:Kathy Mattea
“Sometimes I'll trust my gut more than my head. Logical information might lead me in one direction and my feelings in another. Whereas I would have followed my head ten years ago, now I'm as likely or more likely to go with my gut feeling.
