If You Want to Build Your Intuition, Practice More

Have you ever met someone who just seemed to have a knack for something?

Within minutes they could come up with an idea that would take you hours?

Here’s a spoiler: they’re not magic.

They’ve just practiced a lot.

We rarely get to see the mountain of practice that goes into a creative work.

In fact, we even overlook it in ourselves, leading toimposter syndrome, oridolizing genius.

But intuition doesn’t magically come from a fountain in your brain.

It’s the culmination of practice and experience.

I’ve been fly-fishing all my life.
