> Contrary to common wisdom, which suggests using analysis to verify gut feelings, intuition often works better as a final check on analytical decisions. This doesn't mean not to analyze your gut feelings. I don't see where the author makes this case at all. You can do both. You can pay attention to your gut feeling as a final check on analytic decisions and you can try to understand where that gut feeling is coming from (and in fact I believe you should).
