This is certainly the widest subject you’ll ever get into, but it is simpler to understand than all of the other subjects in life combined. So bear with me in this article and read me a few times over.

Common sense is to think individually and then come near to the same conclusion of all the other individuals with common sense.

So common sense is not to follow someone from a political point of view, but it is to follow the core values of yourself only. So there must be a lot of people with common sense thinking all sorts of different directions, right?

The way I look at common sense is parallel to truth. There might different views of it, but when you understand and get the knowledge of truth you will achieve common sense.

It’s like mathematics. All of us get the the truth that 2+2 is 4, which is defined by universal rules that can’t be tampered with. On the other hand when we start making things complicated (life) with 2,289374 + 2,4843209 = 4,8. Is that right?

You might come to the conclusion that the answer should be 4,77 or 4,774 etc. All with common sense are in conjunction correct, we all got the same answer, but we are looking at the answer from a personal point of view.

It’s like saying a banker uses 4,774 because it gives a more correct answer to getting an answer that benefits correct calculations of multiple numbers. But on the other hand the consumer may use 4,8 or even 5 to calculate the cost of something they buy in the store.

Basically as long as you understand how to achieve common sense in your field (as consumer, banker, farmer etc.), you will get to the same answer as truth can be defined. One truth, one common sense.

To be misinformed and conclude from that point of view, is not common sense. If you bend the universal rules you are able to fool yourself and/or others to believe that as well.

So to get to the point of common sense, you are only to question all the material that made you conclude where you are standing today. One by one they must be reassured or they will break the chain of your current sense. This creates a new foundation and might prosper into common sense.

Do not think common sense is to understand everything, it is not. Common sense is to understand something on your level of work, current life and then apply those same rules into new fields that you have no understanding of. If you are on the wrong grounds (misinformed), many or all of your fields might be wrongfully concluded.

As I told you from start, common sense is the biggest subject of them all, so I have no chance to explain how to pursue it in less than a few minutes, so you’ll have to keep on reading me and follow me (rss). I’ll make it worth your time.

Thank you for reading and I believe I have some common sense, but I will always reassure my conclusions everyday. I know my answer is around 4 or 5, it just depends on what I apply it to.

Just remember, common sense makes sense. Do you know what truth is when you hear it?
