Ingesting information from the internet can be like a wrangling a wildfire. You go seeking an answer to one question and end up surrounded by the flames of public opinion. We used to have to seek out answers with effort, now the answers are right at our fingertips. Every piece of information that we are exposed to act as an input. This information can either uplift and revive, or downshift and choke our internal processing system. Science is now discovering that news to the brain is what sugar is to the body.
Maximal Achievers learn that news stories are overwhelmingly about things of which they have no power. And the daily repetition of information that we cannot act upon, makes our brains passive. Instead, you can gain the knowledge for yourselves through your own experiences. Replace the passive input with carefully selected information that brings you insight and inspires creative ideas. Exercise your power of choice by refusing the invitation to unproductive health diminishing distractions. Skip the news for 30 days and see if you notice a change. Only use the news that is useful information. Detoxing from the news isn’t going to be easy, but it will be worth it for your Maximal Life.
