What is the difference between intuition and a negative thought? That was my source of confusion at the time I believed I was the sum total of all my thoughts. Amongst many other similarly crazy beliefs!
Now I can say with total confidence that there is absolutely no similarity between the two whatsoever! Like Chalk and Cheese.
Intuition comes as a feeling in the gut. A strange sensation in your belly. A constriction in your throat. A flashing image. A wave of red-hot heat running down your back. Butterflies in your stomach.
A negative thought on the other hand is fear masquerading as the voice of reason and logic. It is repetitive, reactive and mostly based in the past. It is fear appointed by the mind to execute terror in the form of very sophisticated combination of words and sentences.
Next time you are undecided about something, ask the question with your mind and not to it. Then get the answer by inquiring your Self. The part of you that feels and senses. Become curious and remain open to what needs to reveal itself to you. Usually the answer might even come days and moments later. Odd places and circumstances. Like a bathtub as Archimedes was to find out!
Most importantly trust what is revealed to you. That is your intuition.
Eureka Eureka you have got it!! J
