    About this ebook

    Intuition is an everyday way for everyone to connect with the divine. It's not necessary to be religious, meditate, pray, or be "psychic" to be intuitive. Our contact with the life spirit through intuition is ever-present and immediate.

    In Intuition @ Work author James Wanless, Ph.D. shares proven innovative techniques each of us can incorporate into our own lives to merge our intuition with strategic thinking. This is a supremely creative process that can support your own highest ideals in every area of your life. This ebook reveals ways you can personally explore how intuition is present in every moment of your life. (You'll find that it exists in many ways other than the occasional hunch.)

    He explains that we all want to find the path in life that will bring us happiness and love, abundance, good health, and meaning. "Intuition is the life force itself, made conscious to us through a feeling that arises from within; through our intuition we tap into the ultimate resource of all--the very source of life. By following the intuitive spirit, all that each of us can humanly be and do is directly revealed and made manifest."

    Dr. Wanless's investigation of the significance of intuition has shown him is how much intuition can do for us, and how easily it can be accessed. He says, "I believe our intuition is useful in a practical way, more so now than in any other time in human evolution, such that it has even become imperative for the survival of our species."

    Life Navigator and Mentor James Wanless, Ph.D., is a former political science professor, popular keynote speaker and seminar leader. He is the creator of the best-selling Voyager Tarot. He travels through the United States, Europe, Australia, Asia, sharing the wisdom gained from his own transformative journey, combined with his professional background as a Professor of Political Science. He has focused on self-governance and the politics of the self--and his pursuit has led him to become a leading-edge authority on creative and strategic intuition.

    Michelle Irwin, E-Commerce Business Consultant at Sun Microsystems said of his work: "Dr. Wanless's seminar provided an avenue for understanding our roles on our team, and how our personality mix is balanced. He motivated and enlightened us as to the potential of what we can accomplish as a team."

    Now he shares his discoveries and his teachings with us, offering a variety of techniques and exercises to help us find and use our intuition, to benefit from our personal connection with the life force. Discover innovative techniques, tips on how to choose wisely, utilize your foresight, find new ways of relating. Create success in your life!

      Ultimate Resource

      The Rewards of Intuition

      One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar. -- Helen Keller

      All good things come from living intuitively. To follow that feeling inside of us we call our intuition is really the only way to fulfill our highest aspirations and deepest needs, indeed, the intuitive impulse helps us to soar.

      We all want to find the path in life that will bring us happiness and love, abundance, good health, and meaning. Unlike our animal friends, who instinctively and unerringly know how to live to their fullest, we have many more choices to make, and thus much more doubt and confusion.

      How do we know our way? Nikos Kazantzakis, author of Zorba the Greek, once wrote, As I watched the seagulls, I thought, 'That's the road to take; find the absolute rhythm and follow it with absolute trust.'

      What is our absolute rhythm? The intuitive flow that naturally moves within us at all times.

      Intuition is the life force itself, made conscious to us through a feeling that arises from within. Intuition is our human version of animal instinct. Through our intuition we tap the ultimate resource of all--the very source of life. By following the intuitive spirit all that each of us can humanly be and do is directly revealed and made manifest.

      Intuition is an everyday way for everyone to connect with the divine. It is not necessary to be religious, meditate, pray, or be psychic to be intuitive. Our contact with the life spirit through intuition is ever-present and immediate. In fact, everyone is intuitive, naturally.

      Much of the time, however, we unconsciously follow our own intuition. And then sometimes we don't--we let somebody else's belief, opinion, or dictate determine our life. The true intuitive person is consciously aware of the inner feeling and feels good about following the feeling. The intuitive life is the consciously felt life.

      There is something within you that knows much more than you know. — Rochelle Myers, Creativity in Business

      We can all probably recall an instance where our intuition guided us or saved us in some extraordinary or miraculous way. Reading Newsweek magazine, I came across the story of Dana Colwell. As she recounts, When I got up to put my clothes on one morning, I almost didn't wear a bra. But a higher power told me to put it on. Shortly thereafter, she was hit in the chest with a nail, but was saved from serious injury by her padded bra.

      My own intuition story goes back to my senior year of high school. I was selected to participate in a series of competitive panels for achieving the distinction of being the top math and science student in the San Francisco Bay Area. I was hardly the best, but somehow I intuited in advance what questions were going to be asked. My intuition was in action, and I won that award because I heeded that feeling inside of me.

      Although I was mightily impressed by this mysterious power, I went on with my ordinary way of living. Many of us have encountered some great experience of precognition; yet I suspect we mostly view intuition as some uncontrollable, random phenomenon. Why don't we deliberately cultivate our intuitiveness? Is it because we believe it's only serendipitous? Is it because we aren't even aware that intuitions exist within us from moment to moment?

      Because intuition emanates from the very mystery of life, it is often unrecognized and unobserved. It is even denigrated and dismissed as something so ineffable that it cannot be trusted.

      I have written this book to explore how intuition is present in every moment of our lives and how it exists in many ways other than the occasional hunch. What this investigation has shown me is how much intuition can do for us, and how easily it can be accessed. I believe our intuition is useful in a practical way, more so now than in any other time in human evolution, such that it has even become imperative for the survival of our species.

      Opening the Big Mind

      Genius, in truth, means little more than the faculty of perceiving in an unhabitual way. — Robert Olson, The Art of Creative Thinking (quoting Psychologist and Philosopher William James)

      The key to unlocking the richness of our intuitive wisdom is to engage in extraordinary, perhaps even revolutionary ways of comprehending our lives. Examples in this book of how to do this range from metaphoric and symbolic picture thinking, strategic storytelling, creative walking, art, and dreaming, to awareness meditation, metasensory smelling and tasting, consulting oracles, mind's-eye visualization, humming, fooling around, and most importantly, freeing your feelings.

      The Authentic Life

      Intuitions come from deep within us in such a way that they can bypass our socialization and our conditioned thoughts and beliefs. Intuitive feelings represent what is true for each of us individual beings. Intuitive thinking is authentic living.

      True to ourselves, we can author and make the life that is absolutely right for us. Following our inner authority, and no one else's, intuition tells us our needs and guides our desires. Then all our decisions and actions come from the very essence of our own being. We can do no more than this.

      You have got to discover you, what you do, and trust it. -- Barbara Streisand

      Only when we know ourselves and act ourselves, can we be truly, truly happy. For, as Jan Roberts writes in The Nature of Personal Reality, You must trust yourself. If you do not, then you will forever be looking to others to prove your own merit to you, and you will never be satisfied.

      Through intuition, we live out all that we can be, all we are meant to be. The seed of potential inherent within us at birth can grow uncompromised into fullness. There can be no greater joy and no greater purpose for living.

      Genius

      Intuition is the source of our own unique and natural genius. It's unfortunate that genius is equated with only mental intelligence. At the risk of sounding silly, everyone has genes, and thus genius. The genius of every living entity is in the particular way it expresses its own original being.

      True genius is found in authentic being, which encompasses how we express ourselves emotionally, physically and mentally. The truer we are to ourselves, the more original we are. Nobody can be you as brilliantly as yourself--that is genius! The inimitable genius is our genie, our own special power and magic. In truth, we are all magical! Within us are ingenious personal resources we can access to make a richly fulfilling life.

      Creativity

      Intuition is the power of creation. The intuitive feeling within us contains the sum total and synergy of our whole being--at once, the aroused heart, the turned-on
