Never Play with Handgrenades: From the Book of Common Sense

NEVER PLAY WITH HANDGRENADES!
At one point in time we have all played with a metaphorical handgrenade, be it in love, business, relationships and more. Something that could cause us disaster in untold dimensions. Yet we would just like to find out what happens if we pull the pin.
This is a guide for all of those people who have at one time said, “What was I thinking, I must not have a shred of common sense”? We have all been there at some time in our lives, and may have not used, or in most cases applied the knowledge we call common sense. This book is about the application of that knowledge that is (or should be) constantly evolving to a more sophisticated level or state of awareness, making us more successful at all our attempts at achieving our goals.
It would be wonderful if somehow we had that mythical crystal ball with all the answers about the future, and how it could prevent us from making the same mistakes more than once, and causing history to repeat itself. Yet we do that very same thing, and repeat the same phrase, “What was I thinking, where is my common sense?”
But we do have a crystal ball that never lies, it’s called “Personal history”. That is the events that have shaped your belief system, and why you do the things you do, and receive the rewards or punishment you deserve for your past as well as present actions, which will obviously structure, and become…your future!
If you adopt the belief system that past events, no matter what the outcome (negative or positive) do not guarantee the same results in future outcomes, be they good, bad, (negative or positive) then you are on your way to structuring a more positive future for yourself. When this happens you have just added another chapter in your book of common sense. A book that you need to refer to, more than you think is necessary.
I hope the stories and truths in this book help you realize no matter who you are, no matter what you’re facing, listen to your common sense. You can’t rewrite the past, but you can use the knowledge from it to change the future, and nothing is ever as difficult, or easy to accomplish the second time you look at it!
