More From Richard P. Feynman

If your skin is crawling, pay attention. if something doesn’t feel right, pay attention. if the hairs on the back of your neck prickle, if your gut clenches up, if a wave of wrongness washes over you, if your heart starts beating faster, pay, pay, pay attention. do not second-guess yourself or rationalize anything that impedes your safety. our instincts are the animal inside of our humanness, warning us of danger.
