Our conscious mind — believe it or not — is not in charge of our day-to-day behaviour.That claim may seem counter intuitive and contrary to our experience, but it has been demonstrated in controlled experiments time and again. By the time our conscious mind is aware of any particular decision or action, it has already been made or enacted by some other part of our brain.

Tax on fools: On deciding to stop all forms of gambling
Intuitive Openness is an ability to go with the flow, as The Ten Stages puts it
Intuitive Openness is an ability to go with the flow, as The Ten Stages puts it, without expecting predetermined outcomes. It means being receptive to new possibilities, without prejudging them. It is an ability to make yourself available to out-of-the-ordinary opportunities. Indeed, openness to the unknown, the exotic, and the bizarre is usually seen as the mark of a free Child Within.
You can increase your openness by practicing empathy. Move outside yourself into another's situation. Try to access the other's feelings and ideas. For the purposes of practice, the more eccentric your choice, the better.
Why This May Be For You
Why intuitive voice exploration openness may be for you:
The contrast to openness is narrow-mindedness. It is characterized by a rigidity of mind. Pessimistic people who have armored themselves against preconceived disappointments are not open. Dogmatic and stubborn people are basically unapproachable.
How available are you to others? How interested are you in people, especially those quite different from you? How flexible are you? Do you usually think you already know how things are going to come out? Are you willing to try something new? These are the questions to ask to assess your openness and to determine the benefits you might derive from this practice.
Todays Affirmations
Opening a window is a cue to open my mind to new ideas and experiences.
When I hold an empty cup, I am reminded to remain open and receptive.
Seeing a sign, a book, or a film in another language, I vow to be open to the messages coming to me from other cultures.
Remember our Child Within whose openness to us is a model for how we should re-open our world.

At the very core of our being is a spark of purity, of perfection, of our child within
The Child Within effervesces within you
The Child Within effervesces within you and sets you to the speculations on time and space it is as one member described a coming home.
Know that the outward form passes away
But the world of reality remains forever.
How long will you play at loving the shape of the jug?
Leave the jug; go, seek the water!
