Personal Story
As a kid, I had the habit of thumb sucking while sleeping. It looks cute but it is not good for your teeth and your oral hygiene. So, my parents wanted me to stop it. At night I would turn away from my mom and would silently get back to my bad habit. Despite having her back to me, my mom would know what I was doing and would ask me to stop. I didn’t understand her sixth sense then but I know now.
How to develop Sixth Sense?
1. Step into their place and look at their point of view
2. Learn about body language cues for signs of joy, anger, nervousness, etc.
3. Observe a pattern in their behaviors
Women and Sixth Sense
Women have been using this sixth sense for years because of their remarkable ability to understand the emotions of someone else.
Their alertness to observe body language and remember behavioral patterns have only gotten better over time.
This is not true for all women but the evaluation has made this true for most women. Even the 5 basic senses of women perform better than those of men.
Conclusion
