Some time ago, I made the decision to read more books than before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that (good) decision, I have bought several books, most of which are about \u201cgreat expedition leaders,\u201d such as Amundsen, Nansen, and Nordenski\u00f6ld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am currently reading Amundsen\u2019s book \u201cMy Life and My Expeditions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, I will immerse myself either in M\u00e5rten Mickos\u2019s book \u201cThe Formula for Growth\u201d<\/em> (https:\/\/otava.fi\/kirjat\/kasvun-kaava\/<\/a>) or in the newly arrived Risto Kalermo\u2019s \u201cThe Man with Unlimited Confidence in Himself.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latter tells the story of mathematics teacher Ilkka Kalermo, who in the 1980s became the second main owner of Kustannus Oy Juoksija.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ilkka also became a good friend and colleague of mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A couple of weeks ago, I visited Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4 to see the lively veteran runner, and with me was another former workmate, journalist Seppo Anttila.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reading makes sense, by the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It develops concentration and attention, strengthens memory, and expands vocabulary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

P.S. I just read journalist Eeropekka Rislak\u2019s excellent Facebook post \u201cReality TV Shows How Adults Turn into Infant-Toddlers,\u201d<\/em> which in turn explains that watching reality TV keeps your brain barely awake, but \u201cin low gear.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tein aikoinaan p\u00e4\u00e4t\u00f6ksen lukea kirjoja aiempaa enemm\u00e4n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sen(hyv\u00e4n) p\u00e4\u00e4t\u00f6ksen j\u00e4lkeen olen ostanut useita kirjoja, joista suurin osa kertoo “suurista retkikuntajohtajista”, kuten Amundsen, Nansen ja Nordenski\u00f6ld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luen parhaillaan Amundsenin kirjaa “el\u00e4m\u00e4ni ja tutkimusretkeni”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sen j\u00e4lkeen uppoudun joko M\u00e5rten Mickosin “Kasvun kaava” -kirjaan (https:\/\/otava.fi\/kirjat\/kasvun-kaava\/<\/a> )tai juuri saapuneeseen Risto Kalermon “Mies, jolla on rajaton luotto itseens\u00e4” -teokseen <\/p>\n\n\n\n

J\u00e4lkimm\u00e4inen kertoo matematiikanopettaja Ilkka Kalermosta, josta tuli 1980 -luvulla Kustannus Oy Juoksijan toinen p\u00e4\u00e4omistaja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ja tuli Ilkasta my\u00f6s minun hyv\u00e4 yst\u00e4v\u00e4 ja ty\u00f6kaveri. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

K\u00e4vin pari viikkoa sitten Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4ss\u00e4 moikkaamassa virke\u00e4\u00e4 veteraanijuoksijaa ja matkassa oli mukana toinen ex-duunikaverini toimittaja Seppo Anttila. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lukemisessa on muuten j\u00e4rke\u00e4. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Se kehitt\u00e4\u00e4 keskittymiskyky\u00e4 ja tarkkaavaisuutta<\/strong>, vahvistaa muistia ja laajentaa sanavarastoa.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

PS. Luin juuri toimittaja Eeropekka Rislakin mainion FB-kirjoituksen “Tosi-tv todistaa, kuinka aikuiset muuttuvat infantiileiksi uustaaperoiksi”, joka puolestaan kertoo, ett\u00e4 tositeeveen katsominen pit\u00e4\u00e4 aivot juuri ja juuri hereill\u00e4, mutta \u201cmatalalla vaihteella\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
