🦁 Training Your Intuition: The Skill Schools Never Taught You

LIP #240
Jun 12, 2025

Your brain has two systems:

  • Logical brain — plans, analyzes, follows steps
  • Intuitive brain — runs in the background, makes up 95% of your brain power

Schools only trained the logical brain. But your intuitive brain is your real edge in an uncertain world.

Your subconscious processes 11 million bits per second. Your conscious mind handles only 40-50 bits. Most of your best thinking happens below the surface.

Here is the key skill: you can choose what to think about. Most people feel like victims of their own minds, but that is just an untrained habit.

Think of your mind like a wild horse — without training, it works against you. The fix is not more planning. It is real experiences that challenge you and force your brain to adapt in the moment.
