Everything in your life starts with your thoughts; they direct your actions and emotions. This puts you in control of so much more of your life than you may realize. Common Sense Is Uncommon offers a collection of wisdom taken from author Anne Balaban’s motivational lectures. They are designed to inspire change in your life—whether at work, at home, or at play—by redirecting your thoughts from ones of negative anticipation to those of positive expectations.

Common Sense Is Uncommon provides an opportunity to acquire new and different ways of thinking, feeling, and doing. In order to have a more positive life, you must understand your innermost thoughts. This beautifully illustrated volume will provide you with the opportunity to find inspiration in these words and enable the changes necessary to be the person you are destined to be—always.

This is a book for managers who know that their organisations are stuck in a mindset that thrives on fashionable business theories that are no more than folk wisdom, and whose so-called strategies that are little more than banal wish lists. It puts forward the notion that the application of uncommon sense - thinking or acting differently from other organisations in a way that makes unusual sense - is the secret to competitive success. For those who want to succeed and stand out from the herd this book is a beacon of uncommon sense and a timely antidote to managerial humbug.

J. Robert Oppenheimer, a leading physicist in the Manhattan Project, recognized that scientific inquiry and discovery could no longer be separated from their effect on political decision-making, social responsibility, and human endeavor in general. He openly addressed issues of common concern and as a scientist accepted the responsibility brought about by nuclear physics and the atom bomb. In this collection of essays and speeches, Oppenheimer discusses the shift in scientific awareness and its impact on education, the question of openness in a society forced to keep secrets, the conflict between individual concerns and public and political necessity, the future of science and its effects on future politics---in short, the common and uncommon sense we find in our modern day reality.

"... the flames of freedom are dying. We cry that Washington has failed us, but that is not where the blame lies. With our rights, We the People were given the duty to maintain them. We the People are the problem. And We the People are the solution. Our republic will be restored not through political revolution, but through a revolution of the soul-- not as we point fingers upward, but as we turn inward. In an age of blame, this is uncommon sense. And it's precisely what America needs to rekindle her light" -- Cover, p. [4]
