I went cycling today. Did 25kms in total through the park connector and on to old upper thomson road. The Upper Pierce/Old thomson road part of singapore always gives me a different feeling. Partly because it reminds me of the time when i used to stay at Sing Ming Avenue and run there frequently. In those days I used to work from home and my business was still in its infancy. I remember working work, running hard (many times at 5 am in the morning) while listening to some great books on audible. It was a really good time.
While cycling on old upper thomson road today I got that feeling again. Just being in nature, with the sounds, the occasional monkey sightings (i saw a family sitting by the road side today) and the pure clean air - there is something so refreshing about it. I was listening to this book called "Bold". Its by the same guys who wrote Abundance a few years ago (and which I read just recently). Its an interesting book which chronicles what the authors predict will be the exponential technologies and ideas that will change the world in the coming years. I like books like these which give useful knowledge about a wide variety of things. I remember reading The World is Flat by Thomas Freedman many years ago and that the book gave me some ideas that I even successfully implemented in my business.
