How did you mis-read the situation and what lead you astray. Don 't leave this to memory. Be brutally honest with yourself. What coloured your hunches, what are your triggers and patterns.

This discovery shows that it is possible to make decisions based on intuition alone if there is sufficient experience. Other than experience, prejudice can also play a huge role in decision making.…
