Everyday Mental Exercises for Developing Intuition

  2. Make quick decisions on the following:
    • Ordering from a menu.
    • Deciding what to wear.
    • Selecting a driving route.
    • Choosing a movie.
    • Choosing a restaurant.
    • Buying a clothing accessory.
  3. Practice making predictions and always go with the first thought that comes to your mind.
