So let's say you failed a test and you knew had the test all down.So you think the teacher is playing you the first thing that pops inside your head is that you want to tell her off but your conscience is telling you "Is this really worth the fight" in your mind you're like "yeah" but your gut and heart is saying "no"Sometimes it's good to go with your gut because who knows it can help you with something like this.Alright say if a guy asked you out or a girl and you REALLY REALLY REALLY think they're cute well you can't just like someone for their looks what if they're a complete back stabber and all.That's not the type of person you need to be with.I'm not saying you just base them on that,Some people can change.For exmaple;there's a football player or cheerleader that asks you to prom you really want to but you've heard that they mess with alot of people some people find that attractive but personally that's someone I don't want to mess with.Who wants someone that's just going to use you .So you're gut is telling you no and that could help in the long run.So basically what i am trying to say is that your emotions or conscience may or may not help you.Though they're always there.
