Source of Brain Food

Where do we source the news we feed our thoughts?

On a recent business trip, I stand in awe as people started gazing on their mobile phones as soon as the plane touches down. People are on to CNN, BBC and maybe some other local language news that feeds into their phones.

Realization - he who controls the news controls their views!!!

Poor people. They probably are oblivious to how much manipulation media has on news coverage these days. Then again, we all have a choice, right.

For me, in normal daily circumstance, I chose to
1. Get news from social circle, maybe FB.
2. Get news from word of mouth,
3. Scan news from the TV or BBC radio.

This way you have a fairly realistic view of whats going on the world! My last priority is on the news apps!

Why? The pattern is eerily the same elsewhere!

Today

I made conscious effort to mix and match my day with work and RnR. 

Woke up very early to catch flight

Stayed at airport lounge to eat bfast

- work begins at lounge

Arrived at destinatio airport

Had late lunch

Checked in to hotel, 

Called family

- work again

Had quick dinner

Did therapy on my sore back

Shop a bit

Went back to my room 

- work again

Called family

Watched tvlogs as i doze to sleep

So far so good. That has been my day.

Good night people! 

Fathers Day Reflections

Models are there mainly for one purpose-to model. Whether marvelling at a model airplane, a model house, a model life etc, lets not forget one thing - Models are meant to approach reality. 

But reality is more than just a model. 

In trying to be a model dad, a model son and a model employee, the roles are just too much to bear for a man.

Instead of trying hard to be a "model everything", my goal now is to search deep and hard on my own self. Understand my strengths and weaknesses, and in the process inspire others to do the same.
