It is a strange world, strange people and strange things…….so today again I draw the curtains on Franz Kafka, a very renowned writer. He has written prominent books like- The Trial, The Castle, The Metamorphosis. He was a major German language fiction writers of the 20th century.
Now what is to do with him that intrigues me, you ask? If you are interested in further reading about him, you can click on the link for Wikipedia. Yes, so now I come to the point!
How many of you know that you chew your food well or you swallow it in haste to finish dinner and get on with work? Very few, I believe. And to be frank, I was one of these until I learnt a very interesting fact of Kafka.
Franz Kafka believed that a healthy body has a healthy mind and one of his major exercises or methods to remain fit was……yes……to chew his food well.
I am not certain about the figures, but they say he chewed his food at least 45 times before swallowing it. I guess he wasted major part of his time at dinner table but does that matter until, he kept fit and excelled in his profession? And fortunately, he did……setting a perfect example for all those ignorant people like us!
So go on guys, the next time at dinner, remember me and this post, pay attention to the way you chew you food and chew it well and hard and who know this might be the secret behind your success just like Franz Kafka.
