What is a gut feeling you had that turned out to be 100% accurate, even though it made no logical sense at the time?

During my MBA, I had a lucrative offer from a well-known consulting firm. On paper it was perfect: high salary, clear promotion path, prestigious name.

Yet something in me felt heavy every time I imagined the daily work and lifestyle. No concrete “evidence,” just a persistent sense that I’d be drained, not developed.

I turned it down for a smaller, education-focused role that aligned with my interest in learning and career development.

Within a few years, that decision opened doors to teaching, advising, and leadership roles I genuinely enjoy today.

I harboured negative instincts regarding a man I dated, but I chose not to heed my intuition. I almost lost my life due to that mistake.
