Corner of high common sense and low action

While this is specifically targeted for physical vibrancy, the bottom right matrix quadrant is always going to be regret. Same with childish and distracted. The upper right quadrant is the only one that changes to match the contextual topic.

Two years worth of Covid-19, 2020-2021.

Sixty-two days in Glacier National Park in 2021.

A year’s worth of disruption to our subdivision’s safety and respectfulness, 2021.

Common sense says we should either be prepared for unexpected events or put structure and process in place to prevent unexpected things.

High common sense, right?

Low action means we get wakeup calls that can massively disrupt or dangerously damage the health of a world, a Nation, a subdivision, or an individual.

If you are unbalanced, your outcomes are mapped out on the post-it note photo above.

Common sense ain’t common

Success is more a function of consistent common sense than it is of genius.

RIP common sense

Orlando Eye
Last night from the restaurant, in the distance, the Orlando Eye. Common sense tells us to look to the horizon (future). Almost imperceptible.

Common sense tells us to focus, take a closer look, and be thankful.

 

Culture is the most powerful tool we have to change behavior.

Personally and professionally.

Let’s focus on personally right now.

All our life we are selfishly robbing from common sense, which insidiously erodes our standards.

Common sense can’t reason with excuses, distractions, or fear.

Because of this inability to reason, excuses, distractions, and fear easily outsmart common sense.

In our efforts to find shortcuts to save time and or money, and to avoid pain or embarrassment, we take creative (and what appears to be innocent) shortcuts.

What we accept by default becomes our standard.

RIP common sense.

What if we thought of excuses the same as this?

In the middle of the sentence, pure gold…the promiscuous amount of choice…

 

Please make sure you read the photo; in the middle of the sentence, pure gold…the promiscuous amount of choice…renders the consumer helpless.

So many excuses.

So little time.

So many excuses render us helpless.

Excuses need to be invalid or unacceptable. It’s like spilling something on a shirt or blouse and as soon as you can you want to put on a clean top or wash the soiled top. You refuse to walk around (unless you’re really drunk) with a glaring spill on your clothes.
