    Sep 15 2011: I, personally, have always had a very strong and reliable "gut instinct" though I don't ever act solely on that.

    I put time and thought into big choices, yes considering the end result as well as my moral compass. Often (though i don't think it should) I am influenced by the reactions of the people around me. Sometimes, even if its the right thing to do, I will with hold from doing something I know will make others upset if it only truly effects myself.
