Abstract Text The article focuses on the power of intuition or gut instincts and how they can be misleading or dangerous when applied in the wrong situation. It explains that intuition works well with familiarity, reinforcement or imitation, that is when faced exactly the same decision repeatedly. It cites that successful intuitive behavior is associated with expertise as the brain has been exposed to a lot of information and has internalized a series of subtle associations.
