Strong Morning Routine

Invest in yourself, you will never be disappointed. I want to share my story of strong morning routine.

I have been a morning runner since Sep 2018. Few things got added since the pandemic began in March.
  • Increased my run a little bit more every day. Now I am running 2.5 Miles @ 6.2 MPH. From Sep 2018 to now I completed close to 43 accumulated marathon miles. Here is a screen shot, I lost 12 of my marathons to previous phone change, thats why you only see 31.

  • I added daily routine as shown in picture below after Work From Home started around March. Roughly in a week I complete 300 crunches, 200 pushups and 100 biceps and 15 miles with a fasting day.



  • Continuing reading books, writing articles and learning new topics on cloud, teaching chess to my son.
  • I do few minutes of meditation every morning and play a game of chess/puzzles every evening right after I close my work for the day.
Few things I may not be doing right...
  • Hooked up with few Netflix series like "Better Call Saul", "Breaking Bad", "House of Cards" especially in the evenings and weekends.
  • Started enjoying my lone time from social groups. I am an introvert to start with but I still drive energy from social gatherings. Too much social exposure drains me out.

Dhirubhai Notorious or Famous???????

This article is about a legend called Dhirubhai. Ambani The collected information about Reliance founder Dhirubhai from book Polyster Prince (which is banned in INDIA) and from internet. These facts are eye openers for rotten politics or eye brow raisers for public or shot in the arm for Indian system or brain teasers for Tax / Finance authorities....... Whatever it is, a man dreamed for something achieved it, the path he chosen might be controversial but not the hard work he put for it, neither his capabilities nor his thoughts..... One thing for sure 2 generations before me they dont know about this guy , might be no body discusses about him after 2 generations, i am proud to be from the same historic period as he is..... His famous quotes: Think big, think fast, think ahead. Ideas are no one's monopoly "We cannot change our Rulers, but we can change the way they Rule Us. "Changing orbits is the key to our progress" Some Unofficial statements made by him : I dont

Excerpt from the book "Made to Stick"

Image
This is one of my favorite books this year. The authors in this book talk about 6 principles to make messaging stick.  S:  Simple: Find the core and share the core U: Unexpected: Get attention(Surprise), Hold Attention (Interest). C:  Concrete: Help people understand, remember and coordinate. C:  Credible: Help people Believe. External and internal credibility. E:  Emotional: Make people care through the power of association, self-interest, and appeal to Identity. S:  Stories: Get people to Act through simulation and inspiration. Golden Rule of Simplicity: A one-sentence statement so profound that an individual could spend a lifetime learning to follow it. People can be driven to irrational decisions by too much complexity and uncertainty. Simple messages are core and compact. We need to shift our thinking from "What information do I need to convey? to "What questions do I want my audience to ask ?" Curiosity comes from gaps in our knowledge. Statistics will, and should,
