Back to the Bay

I will be flying back tonight. I have a tight connection at Singapore (I have 90 mins in between flights and I need to switch terminals). I will be fortunate if I make it on time to the connection. It will be a miracle if my bags make it all the way to San Francisco on time.
I have a huge list of things that I could chose from to do during the next 24 hrs of travel:
1. Read “Good to Great”. Been reading this for a while. For people who are dreaming to become entrepreneurs or getting to the exec management level and is interested in becoming CEOs, a must read. It compares some good companies that have grown at moderate rates to great companies that have grown at substantially high rates. It does lot of analysis on data as well takes opinions from the good and great companies and tries to articulate ”what is missing” in the good companies compared to the great companies.
2. Watch the in flight entertainment in the flight.
3. Work. I have some work related docs to review.
4. Shop at the Narita airport. I have 4 hour break in Tokyo.
5. Read the latest issue of Outlook Business or Business World. I find Indian business magazines to have better content than business magazines in the US. Maybe I am biased, but I like the indian ones better.
6. Meditate during the flight or simply go to sleep.
Hopefully, the steam will not die out as soon as I get back. I will continue blogging. This trip to Chennai has been great. Got back in touch with a whole bunch of old friends and expanded my network in Chennai. And found a new hobby, Blogging.
