Food For Thought

What are you putting your head today?

Are you feeding it a turkey sandwich?

Or a Wendy's "Baconator?"

The late, great business philosopher, Jim Rohn, often said that in five years we will become the sum of every book we read, and every person we associate with.

A profound statement.

With profound implications.

So, what are you reading?

And, who are you associating with?

Because as Mr. Rohn opined, we will arrive SOMEWHERE in five years.

In other words, who we become and where we arrive depends on what we "feed" our heads.

The books we read.

The friends we make--or don't make.

The TV shows we watch--or don't watch.

The radio shows we listen to--or don't listen to.

The people we help--or don't.

All helped determine how we arrived where we are RIGHT NOW.

And will continue to determine where we arrive, FIVE YEARS FROM NOW.

So perhaps it's time for a diet for some of our choices.

And time to gorge ourselves on others.

So we don't arrive at the wrong destination chosen by other people.

But arrive at the right destination chosen by us.
