This is just one day of Headlines on one of the Major News Sites from Yesterday. Sick don’t you think? Now you want to know why I do not watch or read the News! Why expose yourself to this level of negativity on a daily basis? Does it make you feel better to know that other people have it worst off than you? I know people who feed off of this type of News, I have some family members that will call me and have nothing else to talk about other than the miseries of others.
With the constant badgering of major media, we live in a time when there’s too much negativity coming across all day. The only news that is coming through seems to be CNN – Constant Negative News. Everywhere you turn it’s negative news – in the newspapers, on theweb, on TV, and on radio. Our only combatant in this day and age is to turn on what’s positive and turn off the Negative. Researchers have said that it takes eleven correct inputs to overcome one incorrect input. In other words for every negative bit of information that comes your way, you need eleven positive bits of information in order to continue progressing towards success and positivity in our lives.
How can the ordinary Joe obtain success given in this negative situation that we face on a daily basis? I think the most effective way to do so is to take ourselves out of the negative situations, and limit our exposure to it. We must engage in a lot of positive self-talk. Learn to speak the good, the powerful, the positive to ourselves as we go through the various activities of the day. This habit alone can guarantee us a brighter and more positive day. Constant and consistent positive input is the key to realizing the fullness of our personal potential. We have got to feed ourself with material that will enhance the quality of life. Let’s turn off CNN – Constant Negative News.
A few places that I have found to get your daily dose of positive news is Great News Network , Positive News.org, Happy News, there are others like this on the Internet that can satisfy your craving for news while providing uplifting stories. Have a great and positive day.






Those sample headlines help to explain why I chose to stop watching “the news.” I obtain information I believe I need, but I selectively tune out or avoid information sources that pray on fear.
