When You Just Know Without Knowing How

A woman walks into a job interview and within seconds feels an inexplicable certainty: "This isn't right." She can't explain why-the salary is good, the office is pleasant, everyone seems professional. Yet something deeper whispers warning. Six months later, she learns the company was under investigation for fraud. How did she know? This invisible knowing, this flash of insight that bypasses logic entirely, is intuition-and it's been systematically trained out of most of us since childhood. We live in a civilization that worships data, logic, and measurable outcomes, yet our most profound breakthroughs-in science, art, relationships, and self-understanding-come from a different source altogether. Intuition isn't mystical nonsense or lucky guessing. It's an intelligence more ancient and reliable than rational thought, and reclaiming it might be the most radical act available in our algorithm-driven age. Think of yourself as a three-story building. The ground floor is instinct-your body's ancient wisdom that beats your heart, digests your food, and recoils from danger without conscious thought. This system, perfected over millions of years of evolution, never makes mistakes. The top floor is intellect-your rational mind that analyzes, plans, calculates, and solves problems. Useful, certainly, but fallible and often blind to what's genuinely new. Between them sits the middle floor most of us have boarded up entirely: the heart, where intuition lives. Our educational systems function like architectural vandals, deliberately bypassing this middle floor. Energy gets channeled straight from basement instinct to attic intellect because the heart knows nothing of efficiency, productivity, or market value. The heart understands love, beauty, poetry-things that can't be monetized or measured on standardized tests.
