   Ok, let's dive in

   Intuition is that feeling you get in your gut when you know something is right or wrong. It's a sixth sense, or a hunch. You just know it deep down. Intuition can give you faith in what you're doing.

   The old saying “trust your gut” refers to trusting these feelings of intuition, often as a way to stay true to yourself.

   Or it’s that moment when you sense kindness, or fear, in another’s face. You don’t know why you feel that way; it’s just a hunch.

   But what is it? After all, researchers can’t see it in the brain. Let me walk you through a Fine Example of someone using their Gut feeling and saving Millions of dollars...

   In 1983, Gianfranco Becchina had a rare sixth-century sculpture for sale with a staggering $10 million price tag. The Getty Museum, having reviewed X-rays, expert testimony, and historical documentation, agreed to its purchase amid considerable media hype.

   However, when Evelyn Harrison, a renowned expert on Greek sculptures, and Thomas Hoving, former director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, arrived to admire the statue, they knew, intuitively, something was wrong.

   According to Hoving, it seemed “fresh,” which was unexpected as the 2,000-year-old statue had been taken out of the ground.

   And they were right. While the sculpture was from a workshop in Rome, it originated from a forger in 1980, rather than a master sculptor from antiquity (Gladwell, 2005).
