Intuition knocking

In a battle between intuition and reason, the most likely result is that intuition is the loser. Why?

Here is a tale of yesterday, quite literally.

About 7 in the evening, as usual I wondered off to the gym. I parked up, as normal in the busy car-park and sauntered towards the entrance. About half-way from my car to the door I realised that I still had my spectacles on (normally I leave them in the car). My intuition told me that I should go back and leave them there but I ignored it and carried on into the gym.

 

A few seconds later, I was stood by a locker and before taking my clothes off I placed my specs on top of it. As I did, I distinctly recall my inner voice telling me to put the specs in the locker. I ignored it and continued with changing.

30 minutes later I was in the gym speaking with a friend and as I was, my attention was immediately back with my specs (which I had forgotten on my locker). My intuition told me to go and lock them away, but my reason said, “they would be OK, who is going to steal some specs?”

An hour later, I was back at my locker to find my specs gone! No-one had handed them in and they were nowhere to be found!

Today I was at the optician having a new pair made.

Again and again Gwas and I are “taught” to follow our intuition and yet so ingrained is reason that we still have such tales to tell.
