DO YOU NEED TO KNOW THEM ALL??

October 19th, 2007

Information superhighway, Newspapers, Magazines, Flyers, Phone calls, Sms’s and what not????

In this speeding world of information technology, we have various sources of information, which keep on piling on us. No doubt they are wonderful and the best in its own kind, also beneficial in some way or the other.

But an important question arises, DO YOU REALLY WANT THAT INFORMATION???

Being a voracious reader, reading anything and piling up, without actually having use of it is a dangerous thing to do. It is as good as swallowing loads of food and not chewing it. Even if you have half of what you swallow by chewing, the purpose is served.

Time is non-renewable resource. You can either invest it or spend it. The better you invest the more you get returns and the more you spend, the lesser in pot remains for you.

Some Reading tips:-

1. Ask yourself before reading, Do I really need to read this??

2. Make a list of pleasure reading and useful reading. Useful reading (Inspirational books should be done at the most productive time of the day, and the pleasure reading (magazines and newspapers) at the spare time (commuting, hearing to music or sitting with family seeing the idiot box.

3. Go on NEWS FASTING. Try to leave the local newspaper for 7 days at a stretch, and then see what did you miss out. After that you would be able to rate what to read and what to leave at newspapers.

4. Do not complete whatever you read. You can leave them in between if u feel it isn’t worthy. (even I find it difficult, but trying to better it)

5. Lastly, clear your Cupboard every fortnightly. Do not keep on piling the materials, read it and let it go away. If you feel it’s important and that might be useful, file it. Have different file for all your matters.

Still you must be having many more, if possible, share them with other readers of this Blog.
