Common sense, how to exercise it
The mental efficiency series, [v.5]

"Common Sense, How to Exercise It" by Yoritomo-Tashi is a philosophical treatise written during the early 20th century. The work explores the concept of common sense, which the author defines as the sound judgment derived from a balanced understanding of truth and conduct. The text emphasizes the cultivation of qualities that contribute to effective decision-making and the dangers of being misled by impulse and sentimentality. At the start of the work, Yoritomo-Tashi outlines the essence of common sense, likening it to a plant that requires careful nurturing to thrive. He delves into the components that make up common sense, such as perception, reasoning, and memory, while illustrating the implications of neglecting these qualities through engaging allegories. The philosopher reflects on how common sense is essential for discerning truth and navigating life's complexities, ultimately guiding readers toward personal growth and practical wisdom.
