Newspapers stay in business to offer news and media news is
owned by rankings. Bad news offers five times much faster better than excellent
news which is why they don't release "great news" papers.
My first sales job was with a newspaper marketing department
and it was while I was there that I found out the only sort of news that sells
is bad news. If a newspaper was set-up to release just good news, it would
rapidly go broke. It appears the public at large, has a morbid fascination with
other individuals's issues and tragedies. I was Thirty Years of age when I
discovered this and since then over the past 50 years I have actually never
bought a paper for that really reason. Likewise if you stop to evaluate the
material of the constant stream of news that is bombarding your mind all the
time and every day from the tv broadcasts, you will find at least 90% of it is
bad news. Imagine the impact of all this problem on the general public mind with
time. Is it any marvel that there is an around the world increase in
depression, anxiety and stress. The reality is you can survive life
successfully without subscribing to the practice of avidly following local and
world occasions simply to remain updated.
If there is something of significance that will affect your
life, it will be "in the air" and somebody in your environment will
be only too glad to tell you about it, without you having to go looking it.
This technique has two benefits,
1) It frees up the time for you to pursue more favorable
actions in your life.
2) It makes other people feel rewarded when they are able to
tell you the problem.
Let me advise you of just a few of the things you could be
doing instead of spending more time than necessary watching and checking out
the news.
You might read a good book.
You could do some exercise.
You could go help a clingy buddy or some other neighborhood
activity.
You might enhance your mind with more education.
Any of these alternative activities will keep your body and
mind in better condition than if you simply spend the time enjoying the news
more than you require.
