Stu's Daily Dose of MFI'm not sure how long I've been getting a free email from a guy named Matt Furey, but I get a little motivated reading his stuff, or looking at the photos of folks "bridging" or other healthful exercises. From what I've read, he married a Chinese lady and is heavy into the Chinese culture, especially the mindset of the people and their take on fitness and aging. Today, he writes on the pros and cons of watching T.V. He states:
"First, most television is negative. Most of it offers very little value and detracts from you playing an active role in life. Instead of being a DOER - you passively watch "other" DOERS.
"Second, some t.v. is fantastic. A number of programs for kids -
and adults - place you in a state of wonder and excitement to
learn new things.
"Third, the news is almost always something to avoid watching. Your
goal for today, this week or this month is probably not a worthwhile one
if it is nothing more than getting the latest scoop on Anna Nicole Smith
or Britney Spears."
He goes on to explain that although he has a giant-screen T.V., his library is much larger in comparison, and if he were offered money he would sell his set, yet not sell one of his books.
This guy is definitely a trip.
