Avoidable negativity
Jan 12, 2021
Visit any news website and you’ll be hit with a wave of negativity, driven by headlines designed to incite fear.
Do you think we want to read positive or negative articles?
These articles are there because that’s what we want to read!!
We’ve evolved to react quickly to potential threats.
Bad news could be a signal that we need to change what we’re doing to avoid danger.
And so ….. we CLICK!
I can’t blame the newspapers, they’re a business.
I can’t blame humans, we’re humans and we’re instinctively reacting.
I can’t change it, so I avoid it.
If it’s avoidable, I’ve got a choice and so I choose!
Do you read the news? How does it make you feel? Why do you read it?
