Insane
If you do something different from everyone else, you are called insane. What exactly is common sense? Within a certain frame of reference, it is okay to do anything, but if you go outside of that frame for some reason, it is not okay. This way of thinking seems to get stronger as we get older. We think that because we have been doing things a particular way for a long time that there is no need to think of new and different ways.
This may mean that people are anxious about new things, but they also hate change. It's not that they don't like new things, it's that they don't want to change their current situation. I've always lived my life thinking, "Just try it out. If I can't do it, I'll just quit" - so I've tried everything. Of course, 80% of what I've done is probably a failure. Yet thanks to the 20% that succeeded, I am still able to continue my company.
My way of thinking is that I want to try the things that I want to do and see the results for myself, even if it is considered insane. Needless to say, when you start anything, you do it with the expectation that you will succeed. However, when you try something, you run into obstacles that you never thought you would. In some cases, the mechanism of overcoming those obstacles becomes the product itself. In hindsight, this provides many things to think about.
Insane ... isn't it interesting? If it doesn't bother others (or at most just a little) , you should try it. If you don't do something beyond the bounds of common sense, common sense won't grow.
