Has there ever been a time in your life when you went with your gut rather than your head?

Throughout the novel, Lee trusts her gut with multiple decisions she makes. Has there ever been a time in your life when you went with your gut rather than your head?

Yes and sometimes I don't know what my gut was thinking

Haha - love renem comments above - ditto! I think my gut informs my head and vice versa so that it's often difficult to figure out what was the final determinant.

I tend to have a lot of gut instincts. Sometimes I go with that and sometimes I need more time to think it over. I tend to get a lot of instinct upon meeting a new person. Amazingly my gut instinct then is usually right.

Gut instinct or first impression can always be followed, but unless it is a case of fight or flight, I find that a bit of thought is also a useful tool.

Most of the time. That 'spidey sense' can be powerful and should be heeded.

All the time. And sometimes it hasn't worked out so well and I could kick myself for not using my head.

I often go with my gut. I then try to analyze the facts to justify if that is the right decision. My gut is ususally right.

Like most of the above posters, I typically go with my gut feeling. When I have a decision to make, I just "feel" what course I need to take. I usually sit with that feeling for awhile before acting, but I don't think I am really analyzing whether or not my gut instinct is right or wrong. I am much more an emotional person than an analytical one, so trusting my gut is more natural for me. Also, I'm not organized enough to make a pro/con list!

I am a very logic based person so when my gut instinct tells me something, I usually listen. Mostly I rely on facts, figures and tangible evidence to make a decision.
