Salam,
The first time I heard this word- 'Inner Compass' was in my ethics class. Dr Posiah, our Ethics lecturer was trying to explain how a person could choose between two almost similar choices
. Like if you know something about your best friend's partner and you have this dilemma either to spare him/her the pain or being the good friend and tell the truth, the inner compass would be the best tool. It sort of gives you the direction that you need and almost often the compass is influenced by the way you were brought up. I heard this word again today when I was watching 'Leverage' . It was supposed to be the season finale where Nate, the main character had a major decision to make. So he called Sophie and asked her to come back, not because to help him thru another problem but just to be there, to be his 'inner compass' (figures..men..why do they always had to be in trouble first before they actually admit that they need you 
there? ishh...)..Anyway, I come to 
realise we are not only required to have an inner compass but sometimes we will become one to a person who means so much to us. It's like one compass is not enough. Probably what attracts a man to a woman is because his compass is pointing south and hers is pointing north. Now, that is what is popularly known as 'opposite attracts'..
