Day 1: Sight, Sound Dominate

Out of all of our senses, which ones affect us the most?  Sight and sound influence us the most.  Sight, we process 120 bits of information a second, or 34 Gigs of data a day.  We hear and follow about 125 words a minute, while our brains can process 800 words a minute if allowed.  With that much information, we are being influenced every second of every day.  Sights and sounds are all around us, color and noises dominate.

What we allow to populate our very thoughts, contributes to the very things we hold dear and true to ourselves.  Going unchecked they become the information that we allow to mold us.  Our eyes and our ears can’t block sights and sounds that are harmful to us.  Everything we see: books, pictures, movies, signs, or commercials contribute to our growth.  Everything we hear; music, audible books, podcasts, and people contribute as well.

What are you actively doing to filter out the bad and distasteful, and living intentionally putting in those sights and sounds that build us up and not tear us down?
