<I trust my instincts and intuition as much or more than my conscious decision making skills.>

When I was in business I used to sit in meetings for hours and listen to all the analysis and "speeches" having already decided on the direction about 3 minutes into the presentation. I couldn't agree with you more. In the army, instinct and intuition always were vital for me...the only thing I took more time on was reading maps to make sure I got it right.

When I'm not sure, my first guess is usually the best one.
