We need to sort out what we think from what we feel because our feelings are what best guide our decisions.We can gather all the thoughts, facts and data in the world, but we'll never have enough data for important decisions, or even unimportant ones, and ultimately we have to rely on our gut feelings."In small matters, trust your head," said Freud, "and in large matters, your heart."What is a feeling? A feeling is "a lump in the throat"--a bodily sensation first, and when we get in touch with how our body is reacting to the situation at hand, we have a touchstone for what's really going on.We can ask ourselves, "How would I feel if I took Plan A?" or we can envision ourselves doing Plan A and see how our body reacts, or we can ask, "If I did Plan A could I sleep at night?"Good decisions are values-based and our feelings guide us to a solution that works for us.
