It’s Only Common Sense: When Data Isn’t Enough, Trust Your Gut
02/03/2025 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseWe live in a world driven by data. Numbers, charts, algorithms, and analytics are the backbone of modern decision-making. Despite data’s crucial role, we often undervalue intuition, your gut instinct: that deep unquantifiable feeling that nudges you toward one choice over another when the numbers alone don’t provide clarity. Trusting your gut doesn’t mean abandoning data; it’s recognizing that decision-making is as much an art as a science. Let’s explore why intuition matters and how to balance data and instinct.
