Around this time of our lives we’re brought upon the burden of making our own decisions. A lot of us don’t realize that we sometimes don’t listen to ourselves when making decisions. We listen to what we think, not what we feel.

Instinct is the gut feeling in you is what pulls you in a different direction. It is also that one thing that stands even when it’s next to similar objects. For me, I find that whenever I follow my instincts, things turn out better than they would have if I didn’t. I always listen to my instincts regardless of how crazy or ridiculous it may seem because this is my life; I’m going to live it my way. It’s only your life if you control it.

Your instincts are your soul’s way of telling you where to go. Don’t listen to your mind. Sometimes we over think things and we tend to go a certain direction because of the pressure.

Your soul is what makes you an individual. Think about it this way. Out of approximately 7 billion people in this world, there’s only one you. Take advantage of that and be yourself, follow your soul, go where it takes you. When people say, “Follow the wind,” they mean for you to follow the little tug you feel.

All your experiences made you who you are today. Whether you like it or not, you need to realize that what you do will affect your life dramatically.

Trust should not be given out on a silver platter with an unlimited portion since trust is bound by love and experience. Love is earned and given, sometimes returned. Experience is what you’ve lived through. If you don’t felt love for someone or if you have not had any experiences with them, don’t trust them because you don’t really know each other.

Don’t trust what you don’t know. You will never really know something to its full understanding. No one knows you, but you. No one knows them, but themselves.

If you can’t trust someone, at least have the decency to trust yourself. If you can’t trust yourself, who are you?
