The common man's definition consists of a few core characteristics that help him to strive, survive, and navigate his life. Adaptability, persistence, the innate sense of good and evil, hard-working and an unquenchable thirst to know and discover. Such abilities ensure his survival and help him forge his path in life. However, we often blur the lines between our inquisitive nature and standing in the way.
