Today, my intuition says it's time to speak the truth about my special "intuitive" gift. Intuition is this ability to understand something immediately, without the need of conscious reasoning.... the ability to see any event or any object from a viewpoint of the cosmic whole... the ability to get a sense, vision or feeling about someone or something.
A year ago, I met this intuition expert in one of the networking events in Salt Lake City and when she told me she was writing a book on intuition, came this strong rush of feeling inside me and I was bursting out like a drag queen, and I said "I've been hiding in my intuition closet. I know it's there and it wanted to come out so strongly and so undeniably that they startle me.... It is like every cell of my body is screaming at me to do something, to take a certain course, even though logically it may make no sense..." That confession to this woman I just met had led me to open my mind and heart to study it and learn how to tap in its power, listen to it, trust it and teach it to guide me. It was not an overnight makeover but many months of practicing my awareness of this amazing gift. Once I came out of my closet and awakened my inner guide by unlocking the wisdom of my subconscious mind, I already know what to do - no questions asked.
I've written a little bit about it in my last year's blogs but not with huge compliment. For example, I wrote something like.... "I feel that there is something big and significant that will happen to me this year. I don't know what or why or how, but I feel that I need to prepare for it." And so I followed this instinct and took the actions without questions... and so I was right!
The interesting thing about intuition is that it doesn't necessarily coordinate with our current reality or current life. Sometimes, our intuition serves as a protector, preventor or guide. Sometimes, you may not know why you took the action you took until more time passes... One thing I know for sure is when I don't follow those intuitive hints, I usually pay a price down the line.
Call it gut-feelings, instinct, inner guide, little voice inside my head, internal GPS, higher self, wizard within..... I have learned to trust this gift to always lead me in the direction of my dreams. I have learned to train that part of me so I have an overview of my life that has my best interest at heart. It can provide me an oasis of peace in the midst of chaos, bring me to harmony, help me release negativity, and give me confidence to take action and prepare for change in my life. It also can be a valuable guide as I take steps to create my dreams and know how to turn them to reality.
Here's a video that I found that talks a little bit about How to Tap into Your Intuition (and not to over think all the time...).

The Fabulous Pinay Finally Speaks The Truth
The truth is I wondered why I don't write blogs as much as before. (What's new pussycat?) The truth is I felt that so many good things has happened in my life already this year that it will make me sound so full of my self if I highlight them one by one. The truth is I feel humbled in many of those milestone moments. And the truth is I just kept it to myself... when I should have spoken the truth.
This past weekend I took the liberty to be with a group of like-minded women in Salt Lake City called the "Ignite Your Spark 2011, Speak Your Truth." I knew without a doubt that this is my event. Not only do I want to ignite my spark but I need lots of fuel to set my ground of fire.... well, that's too graphic, what I'm trying to say is, I needed more courage to step out of my box because I feel like I'm going to breakthrough this year.... I don't know how, I don't know why, but I feel it coming...
The "Speak Your Truth" tag line also inspired me. This personal blog has been my way of speaking my truth for the past several years. I have written humorous tales from my childhood "promdi prabins" days up to my humbling experiences here in the states... All of those served me well to be the strong and independent woman that I am now.
I had many unforgettable memories from this conference, but there was one moment that I will forever cherish. It was when I shared to a few women a personal testimony as they shared to me their own dreams and what they hope to gain from this conference... Last year, I once felt fear and had gone through some adversity. Those days I so-called my "Ramen Noodle days" really tested me, my bank account and most especially, my attitude. As an advocate of self-empowerment tools like books, magazines and audio CDs on positive thinking, visualization, attitude of gratitude, law of attraction, etc. I knew those moments were the perfect opportunity for me to put these wisdom to action. I even highlighted them in a few blogs, like the New About Me, and the Four Fearless Steps that Made a Difference in my Life. There was only one thing for sure that I did. I MADE A DECISION. And I act upon it, and the rest was history.
Lastly, I wanted to share this inspiration that I got from the conference: "How does one become a butterfly? someone asked.... It is when you want to fly so much that you're willing to give up being a caterpillar." The truth is, without focus and action, your dream remains just that.
