That pit you get in your stomach when you sense something is wrong might be telling you it's time to take action, so listen to it. "Listen to the little ideas that your subconscious and your intuition tells you," Bentley-Moore says. "If it's telling you to go and raid the loft for items to sell in a car-boot sale, listen. If it's telling you to start your own dog-walking business, listen. Listen to the little subtle things that you're being guided towards."
The same can be said for when your gut tells you not to do something. Feeling uncomfortable about your monthly manicure? Don't go, and paint your nails yourself. Dreading going on that night out with your friend that you really can't afford? Suggest a night in with films and snacks instead. Need to buy someone a gift? Consider making them something.
