About one's <<Gut>> and instinct

[Pozitron]

OK so I'm really not into techniques and all that stuff. I think is useful if you know them. Ex: You face a situation. Never done it before. Solution:
1) You must know what to expect, what to do( that's why I think some of the articles here are useful) . You shall have knowledge.
2) You must put that knowledge into practice aka Taking action. That way you have wisdom.
Knowledge + Wisdom = True DJ.
3) You must go with the flow. Focus on the now, Focus on the task in hand ( I find this useful im most situation--- eliminates worry and unnecessary thinking---).
This is the very short version of my philosophy ( for now).

----> What do you think of the above?

Relating to point " 3) ": I really think one should follow his instincts and his gut since most of the times in this way you take the right action.
Now... the actual reason of making this post: I am kind of confused of what instinct and " trust your gut" really means.
- sometimes you have that voice inside your head that suggests you things. Kind of like an wingman saying: " Now do kino" " hold hands" " go to her and introduce yourself" " Make eye contact". Should one listed to that voice? Is that the "gut", you instinct?
If not, what is it?

I'd say your instinct and your gut is what you think/do before any filtering comes into play. Im not even sure if you think it. You just do.

The more time you spend in the field, the more gut feelings you get, or you just know when to do stuff. It's all calibration.

It's kinda a stripping proces. No, not that kind of stripping. Imagine peeling of the layers of an onion. We're peeling of the layers of conditioning, and find our true core.

Ok so it does or doesn't have anything to do with that voice I mention I hear sometimes:

I dunno, I feel a twitch in my fingers when I should touch a girl and a whipser in my head that says what I should say. Sometimes you ignore it, but it's usually right.
