Have you followed your feelings? Has it proved wrong or right?

Question

Recently I followed my feelings. It proved to be a bad thing and I should have listened to my brain. Have you ever followed your feelings? And have they been right or wrong?

Answer 1

I always follow my 'brain' (I am the brain).  I don't rely on feelings and I do pretty good.  At worst things are a little slow and boring time to time but also stable and calm.

Answer 2

Emotion sees the short term, your brain sees the long term.

Following your emotions usually turns out bad. Crimes of passion are a great example.

Answer 3

I have and like you sometimes been wrong, but you cant loose hope, hang in there

Answer 4

If you mean intuition than I disagree.  My brain is always the wrong one.  So I have learned to always go with my intuition and so far it has taken me a long way.  But if your talken about feelings feelings than I dont know I would just do whatever felt right.  Love and Light.

Answer 5

I followed my thoughts and they left me in a pretty cold place. Maybe that's due to the fact that I first strongly followed my feelings, then realized I'd been deluding myself. Whatever you do, be consistent. If you get wrapped up in feelings and reality strikes through your thoughts, it's not pleasant. If you get wrapped up in thoughts and your feelings finally get a grip on you, you'll have a breakdown.
