Uncommon Sense is back with a vengeance! We have some important matters to cover, so buckle up!

There are times when it pays to make sudden, drastic changes in one’s life. Quitting smoking would be an example. Yet equally important is the power of what I call “Micro-Habits.” The Self-Development column will address that.

In the previous issue of Uncommon Sense (Issue #328) I covered Part 1 of a piece on what took place four years ago on January 6th. We looked at some key things that we still do not know about that fateful day. The Elephant in the Room column will continue to explore both what we don’t know but also what we do know. Check it out.

The From Ara’s Journal column takes a very serious look at the topic of laughter.

And because I want you to sound more intelligent than less intelligent when you communicate, The World of Words column brings to you a dandy new word to add to your vocabulary. Use it, and watch people’s perceptions of you change for the better.

OK, let’s get started.
