Murder, conflict, politics, woe.
Sigh.
Whether we hear it, watch it, or read it, our daily dose of news stories feels bad, triggers defensiveness, and has us missing all the good that happens and that could happen.
Try a news diet. Shut off the radio, put down the paper, change the channel, close that browser tab. Notice how much better you feel after just a day.
Don’t worry about staying on top of things. If something dramatically important happens that needs your attention, someone will tell you. And, having not drained your batteries listening to the news, you will be in a much better state to help if you are needed.
In your corner,
Mike
