Maintaining a Positive Outlook on Life.
The experiment continues...
News blackout!
To ensure a positive outlook, and feel emotionally happier, I quit watching the local news on television. Wow... no bad news!
It may seem a bit ... Can't think of the most appropriate word... but distancing myself from all the news in todays world, and not knowing what is going on has more benefits than keeping informed. I get the weather from the internet and that's pretty much all I really need to know. I don't need to hear about stuff that I can't do anything about anyway. Don't need to hear about politics... there is NEVER anything good. Don't need to hear about out of control crimes & murders. Don't need to hear about who is offended by today's new round of drama. Don't need to hear about international conflicts or wars.
1. There really is not much I need to hear about in the news... It's all bad. The constant relentless onslaught of bad news does nothing but emotionally bring you down.
2. The vast majority does not directly affect me anyway.
3. And whether it affects me or not, there's nothing I can do about it anyway.
3. And whether it affects me or not, there's nothing I can do about it anyway.
Just something to think about.
Maybe even try for yourself.
You will be happier.
