What’s Your Story?  Should you cancel your subscription to the NEWS?

We live in a world where we are constantly bombarded with stimulus and information that generally makes no positive contribution to the story of our lives.  It is important to understand that your human character is operated by a bio-computer that works in much the same way as an electronic computer.  Every byte of data it is exposed to is added to memory files and will be processed based on your predominate beliefs about the nature of reality.  The problem arises due to the great amount of erroneous data – information that is biased, inaccurate or simply not relevant to how you should be evaluating your life path. 

The information that we allow to program our thinking is very important because while it need not be relevant to you, whatever you focus your attention on will be energized in your experience.  This is because it is your “consciousness” that shapes your personal reality.  You are not the product of some “reality” out there – you are the designer of your own world.  You can get more of this story in the book “Karuna Hum” but please try and accept that “As a Man Thinketh, So Is He” as was stated in a book by James Allen, a British philosophical writer.   Thoughts and beliefs define how you perceive reality. 

Therefore, the suggestion we have for you today is that you begin turning down the volume of all those outside opinions and news reporting.  Most of the “news” is bad news and constant exposure to it can be very alarming and depressing.  The daily news is a major source of anxiety.  There would be value in knowing if you had the power to fix the situation but since that is usually beyond your immediate abilities, the information will instead make you feel helpless is a dangerous and cruel world.  Those very feelings will greatly diminish your ability to believe in a positive more enlightened reality.  Once you succumb to darkness, it will be harder to find your way back into the light.  Please remember it is always what you focus your attention and energy on that will be stimulated as part of your own reality.

Here is the suggestion that can revitalize your life:  stop watching the news, stop watching crime dramas on TV, stop soaking up anger and hate on social media – every bit of it will diminish your well-being and contribute nothing to your enjoyment of life.    

You can still support people and organizations looking to bring more peace and ease to the world but question any using “fear” as a tool to manipulate the masses.  Fear based thinking is always misguided.  Focus your energy with those who are proclaiming a brighter future and creative solutions.  Creating a new world requires faith in our creative and innovative power to re-invent how we do things.  Fear only breeds failure.
