Originally published in 1916, this simple story is over a hundred years old, but its message on the value of applying common sense in our career is just as relevant today as it was 110 years ago.

Advertising legend David Ogilvy claimed Obvious Adams changed his life. He was so passionate about its message that he made his employees read it every year! It is less a book about advertising (or even Adams himself), and more accurately: a book about the power of a sharp mindset.

I encourage you to enjoy this story many, many times to gather fresh new insights and nuggets of practical wisdom from the plain (but inspired) life of the legendary Obvious Adams.
