COMMON SENSE OUR SENSE IN COMMON

How do you make sense? I am speaking of common sense, or the default in every person that guarantees specific outcomes when used. If you don't use this practical gift, be prepared to journey harder instead of smarter and become a graduate of the school of hard knocks. What is it that prevents or discourages our natural good sense from being used?

USE IT

First of all, you don't make this but instead you use this. When being used, it makes its own sense and we tag a long. This is as it should be. Should one try to add or take away from this simple & easy to use gift, it then takes on another nature entirely going places & doing things not in line with ourselves or others

WORK IT

To really appreciate and understand this even better, try not making sense to see it from a different point of view. Ever hear or see something that doesn't compute? You actually know it right away but you have a proclivity to doubt what you see and hear. This is one of the factors of common sense not working because your not working it

DRIVEN BY LUST

Another is that one becomes too willful and as a result, dispenses with logic, planning and procedures and instead lets obsession, compulsiveness and tunnel vision take over point. To be driven on these levels is to imitate animal behavior. This is not attractive in a human. Common sense is at odds with this

YOU KNOW BETTER

We all have the good sense to know better, act well and prevail in whatever is presented. For many, losing ones cool or head propels them into another dynamic that compounds what could have been an easy situation to remedy into a full blown episode of turmoil and confusion. Staying calm beckons good sense

YOU DO KNOW

If something is too good to be true, notice how your common sense zeroes right in on it. That's how good this precious gift is. It works without being told. The problem is that we have the choice to interfere or deactivate it. Therein lies the issue for us all. When we think we know better instead of knowing that we do know better and then acting on what we know

WOMEN EXCEL HERE

Women have been given a sharp, sensitive dose of this and it serves them well and others when in use. When a woman doubts her own intuition and obvious knowing, that is where her troubles begin and continue until she does come to her senses. Many a time has intuition saved the day if only we listen

DO NOT DOUBT

Analysis paralysis, sinking in thinking and second guessing all remain enemies of the natural knowing realms where common sense rules. To learn to navigate successfully in the world of common sense, one must not doubt what they know to be true. Supporting your own intuition works even when it doesn't

GET INTIMATE

You get to recognize by experimenting with this small little voice and prompt when it appears and in the process of fine tuning and living by its guidance, a sort of trial and error kicks in. You see where it works best and works least for yourself making you more familiar and intimate with this dynamic

IT'S NATURAL

It is intimate based so this type of work is required. Every error or miscalculation or failure to participate or follow through is a value because it is teaching us the errors of our ways. Once one becomes familiar with this procedure & then stays the course, the connection is made & your sense goes on point naturally and consistently.

JUMP IN TO ACTIVATE

How do we test this into full operation? We enter into the mix, the flow of life and come what may, rest assured that your sense will be activated along with what interferes with it. You will see what works and what doesn't and course correct. At some point, less becomes more and simplicity overtakes self

WATCHING YOUR STEP

People with good common sense are not in a hurry, travel without hesitation and live in a carefree environment knowing that what is in their now or present is lighting the way as they go. Its like having a flashlight out in front of you in a dimly lit situation. It lights your way so you can step accordingly

WHEN USED IT REWARDS

It is its own reward when used. In fact, usage sends an intimate message to the sense Creator that what was given is appreciated based on the simple fact of it being used. That's how you practice thankfulness. Its by using what was given correctly. This is what is intended and is the true coin of this realm

GOT SENSE?

Sure you do. Don't doubt it, be afraid to use it or neglect it and it will make itself closer to you with use. Does this makes sense?

Good morning Richie! A great post on common sense and I recently heard a news commentator say that "political correctness" should be taken out of our vocabularly and replaced with "common sense".  Made complete "sense" to me!

Hi Richie Alan Naggar You are right,common sense isn't all that common in practice. We all need to listen to our inner voices.

And I agree with the comment. I prefer Common Sense to Polically Correct.

Well this makes perfect sense!  I liked this part - Women have been given a sharp, sensitive dose of this and it serves them well and others when in use. When a woman doubts her own intuition and obvious knowing, that is where her troubles begin and continue until she does come to her senses. Many a time has intuition saved the day if only we listen

Over and over we are warned to listen to our intuition...and use common sense.  Enjoyed your blog posting once again, Richie.  Thank you.
