How’s That Big Ol’ Bowl of Fearios Tasting Right Now?
I bet you’d rather be chewing on something else
Alright, so here’s the deal.
Everything’s a little uncertain right now. There’s a lot of fear. There’s a lot of confusion. There’s a lot of misinformation being peddled right now by people who have absolutely no right telling you how it actually is out there.
And if you weren’t aware of it already, I’ll let you in on a little secret…
The media isn’t your friend right now.
They never have been and they never will be.
Their lifeblood is fear and they make off like bandits as long as they’re able to instill that fear in you. It’s fear that keeps you glued to their programs looking for more, and they know it.
So do yourself a favor and stop falling for that trap.
Should you check in on the news during a time like this?
Of course.
Should you have an idea of what’s going on in the world right now?
Of course.
But if you’re constantly eating that big ol’ bowl of Fearios mainstream media keeps dishing out, you’ll go insane thinking that the world is doomed and crumbling to pieces around you.
Check in on the news, but don’t check in on it incessantly. That’s step #1.
Yes, it’s bad out there.
Yes, people are getting sick and losing their lives.
Yes, people are losing their jobs and wondering when they’ll get back to work.
These are unprecedented times and no one has definitive answers.
But one thing is certain…
We’re all in this together — and sooner or later, we WILL get through this.
Right now, there are things you CAN control and things you CAN’T control — and over the next couple of days, I’m going to dive deep into each.
We’ll start with what you CAN’T control first…
… and we’ll start first thing tomorrow.
In the meantime, shut off the news. That’s something you CAN control — and if you do it, I promise it’ll bring more peace to your life than you think.
Halt right there!
