Listen to today's podcast...
Why is common sense not so common?
Common sense is one of the most revered qualities in the workplace. People with common sense are seen as reasonable, down-to-earth, reliable, and practical but here's the catch.
Common sense is neither common nor sense.
If common sense was common, then most people wouldn't make the kinds of decisions they do. Every day people wouldn't buy stuff they couldn't afford. They wouldn't smoke cigarettes or eat junk food. They wouldn't gamble.
In other words people wouldn't do a multitude of things that are clearly not good for them.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency
So Here Are My Tips For Building Resiliency In Celebrating Use Your Common-Sense Day:
Trusting in common sense can cause us to make poor rather than sound judgments.
Gather the facts.
Look at past experience and talk to others before making decisions which could have dire consequences.
Keep an open mind to all the possibilities, rather than just confirming the solution that you want to see.
And finally, while we often think with our emotions, this can lead to negative outcomes.
There are times when it's better to think with our analytic brain instead of our heart.
