Greetings!
While growing up, one of greatest assets that I have known to be is my instinct as it has always helped me in most of my endeavours most especially when I'm about to choose between two different things. My instinct is so powerful and I have never joked with it nor handled it carelessly since I have known it to be my guide.
Although there were times it failed me, that was when I was beginning to doubt its efficiency and efficacies in my dealing with it, however, ever since I stopped doubting its activities in my journey, it has always been my partner and consultant.
Having said this, I would like to delve into the topic of the prompt which is all about, “instinct.” As simple as this topic might sound, I can say that it's not just an ordinary topic but a topic that carries a deep meaning and a heavy weight.
Like I said earlier, one thing I have been thankful for is my instinct which on so many occasions, have saved me from embarrassment and shame. Before doing things according to my instincts, failure was always the order of the day. Although it wasn't my fault entirely as I believed in listening to people's advice and words of encouragement, one thing I noticed then was that, people used their own template to advise me which on so many occasions wouldn't work for me as what works for A might not really work for B.
However, when I noticed that there's a spirit in me that serves as my guide which is my INSTINCT, I decided to always listen to the spirit no matter how ugly and tough the directive of my instinct could be, I would follow and the end there of is always with a testimonies of success.
I could remember me trying to choose a professional path in Law and Education. Then, my instinct was like I should go for education but when I went around to meet people, all they were saying was that I should go for Law, but since my instinct had worked for me before then, I decided to listen to it and thank God I did so as not doing so would have caused me a lot and this was because the person that I have relied on to sponsor me in the journey through the payment of my huge Law school fee disappointed me even while studying a less expensive course and it's from the time he disappointed me that I decided to move on and that's how my instinct saved me on that particular journey.
Had it been I have listened to people's advice which might have seemed right, I would have dropped out in the middle of the journey, but since I followed my instinct, I was able to finish with a good success at the end.
In conclusion, I would thank God for giving me a good instinct which has always helped in guiding me to success in life.
