What we notice informs and creates our reality. Observation offers perspective and perspective becomes our world view.
Earlier this week Set Godin said ” Happiness, for most of us, is a choice. Reality is not. It seems, though, that choosing to be happy ends up changing the reality that we keep track of.” Got me thinking about the what do I keep track of and why.
Mostly, it is family then news and politics and the lens of the CNN effect becomes a magnet pulling my attention and framing my circle of life. If I stoop watching news will my reality change? Worth a try – so I am going to avoid news broadcast, new sites, radio news for the next 7 days. I will report back next Saturday.
This was encouraging to read. I turned off my cable deliberately to remove the outside influence on my life and well-being. Big difference.
