I feel there are two people inside me – me and my intuition. If I go against her, she’ll screw me every time, and if I follow her, we get along quite nicely.
Meaning of the quote
Inside all of us, there are two parts - our own thoughts and feelings, and our intuition or gut instinct. If we ignore our intuition and do what we think is right, it can backfire on us. But if we listen to our intuition and follow what it tells us, things usually go smoothly and we feel good about our decisions.
