To be intuitive or not to be?

There have been instances where intuition works and sometimes fails. There are instances in which you get your work done by being counter-intuitive and some times not. The question is to be intuitive or not to be or to be counter-intuitive or not to be.

Being counter-intuitive makes you rational to an extent. But, if you are intuitive you are creative, can you be creative and at the same time be counter-intuitive and also emotional?

Being rational doesn't neccessarily mean being counter-intuitive?

To sum it all up, what do you want to be?.

Can you categorize your thinking this way, when you think about somehthing, how would you think about a topic?. As far as I can think, think intuitively, think counter-intuitively (if possible) and then take a decision which excites you and gets the work done. Again, you can weigh both the results and take a decision which is going to give you long term benefits (again, am I being intuitive here or counter-intuitive?). Does this make me rational? I think it makes me an engineer actually. Personally, I don't think life manifests itself in a structured and ordered manner, it is only displaying our limitation or the way we think about it.

For example. it's 215am now, I am supposed to head to office tomorrow at 9am. Hence, it's better to sleep, that's what I am thinking, the other way to think is, I have loved writing this piece of random thoughts in my mind and would love to continue, but, doesn't seem to be a practical decision, even though I may be happy, for a short period of time. Wise decision would be to sleep. I guess your mode of thinking depends highly on the situation you're in. To be intuitive or not to be is highly intuitive, or is it counter-intuitive !
