Learning a little discernment around your empathic and intuitive signals can go a long way to helping stay in flow and in attunement with your inner biz priestess. In part 2 of this series, we talked all about what it might feel like to get an intuitive “maybe” signal. In this part, part 3, we’ll dive a little deeper into what to do when you’re maybes are stronger than your yes or no signals.
When you’ve gotten into a place where you have more “maybe” signals than direct “yes” or “no”, the mind kicks in to rebel against being in the position of not knowing the answer.
The mind will tell you that you are:
| Blocked | Frustrated |
| Overwhelmed | Writer’s block |
| Confused | Not clear |
And while, yes, it does feel frustrating to be “blocked”, those stories about why you can’t simply move forward, make a choice, don’t help you discern what to do next.
From an energetic perspective, a quandry of “maybe” signals can easily create a situation where we are paralyzed, overcome stagnant energy. The best cure for stagnant energy is to create movement!
The thing is “maybe” is not the problem we think it is. We have a tendency to jump to the conclusion that maybe means “no”, simply because it’s not an immediate yes. We shrink back because we’ve got some story or excuse about why it’s not an instant go, when we should be making the small choices we are sure about, and looking for patterns in the rest. We need to learn to work our own process for coming to intuitive clarity instead of stopping.
We have be open to potential in order to see it more clearly. As entrepreneurs we can’t afford to be afraid of the bigness of the vision before you, the work it might take, or the depth of the project. It all has to be completed in the moment, piece by piece, word by word. You owe it to yourself to take a step back and get back to being open, because maybe means there is potential waiting for you to more clearly tap into.
Getting many maybe’s is actually part of your intuitive process. It doesn’t mean your idea sucks, that you are a hack, or that you are worthless because you have no follow through. That state of unsurity only means you have yet to see the bigger picture. While it feels more natural to shrink away from the uncomfortable unknown, we can’t shrink in the face of maybe’s. We have grow, grow our vision larger, our idea of who we are and what we are capable of.

The biggest tip I stand behind is that of paying attention to your own process. Understanding how you already work your intuitive and creative problems solving process can help you create rituals to keep you flowing.
