Lose the news!

There is something you can do today to be happier and maintain a positive attitude...stop reading, listening to , and watching the news (or at least limit your exposure). It's no secret that the news focuses mainly on the negative; and most of it has nothing to do with your own life. But, letting that negative information seep into your mind leads to anxiety, fear, and feelings of depression at a subconscious level. Why not choose to feed your mind with positive messages. Read personal growth books or biographies, listen to audio seminars, or watch movies like The Secret, The Opus, or The Ultimate Gift. Look for anything by Jim Rohn, Chris Widener, Brian Tracy, Zig Ziglar, Jack Canfield...the list goes on and on. They have messages that will inspire you and ideas that can change your life dramatically if you take the information and apply it! As an experiment, go on an information diet for a week...no TV, no radio, and no newspapers. At the end of the week, reflect back and ask yourself: Did I miss it? Is my life better or worse after this week? Can I continue without these things? Most people will find the results to be very positive. Try it an see!

If you want a great resource for personal success materials in all formats, go to "Your Success Store" and check out the products they have. It will give you a great idea of what is available to start on a positive information diet. Also, I highly recommend subscribing to Success Magazine or at least visiting their website. The magazine has fantastic content every month and also includes a dual-disc (audio CD/DVD) every month. If you only subscribe to or read one magazine, this is the one!

Keep positive and lose the news to achieve your dreams!
