His career started with intuitive direction, then moved to intellectual rigor, then back to a combination of intuition supported by the loyal servant, the rational mind.
In a conversation over dinner, I asked Arjun what part of his decision making involved intuition. He gave me an unusual answer:
“If you asked me that 20 years ago, I would have said maybe 30%. As you ask me now, I would say 70%. I believe that if you ask me that ten years from now, probably 90%.”
Arjun sees intuition as a very important life skill. His view of intuition is that it fits into two buckets:
First, what he calls “raw” intuition where there is no rational explanation to the directional energy (I define this as Future Intuition, See Chapter 3).
Second, intuitive direction that is gained from years of practicing a specific skill (Past Intuition). In his case, this specific skill happens to be finding and building investment opportunities that will provide a strong return for his investors.
The first example provided is the bucket of energetic pull. Information from within that has no rational explanation, but something pulls you in a certain direction.
