What if We Are Headed for a Civil War?
Short episode summary
If the news has you triggered and afraid of feast, famine, and civil war, you’re not alone. In this episode, I share why, now more than ever, it’s critical you work on your own self-worth, and get your mindset right.
Timestamps of big takeaways
[00:14] We’re going to talk about alleged discord in our country and globally right now
[00:50] Looking back, I can see where things happened in the past, and I was blissfully unaware
[01:16] A lot of the news is fear-mongering and clickbait - anger fuels clicks and media sales
[01:50] I’m becoming acutely aware of how marketing affects us - but we can choose to feel and think differently than the media and our surroundings are pushing us to feel and think
[02:09] How we look at our life, and how we perceive our world, can come back to something as simple as our own self worth
[02:25] What’s going on can impact your work and home life - if you let it
[03:01] Often how we perceive the news is a direct result of things happening in our own lives
[04:10] Lately, I’ve been asking myself “what if” questions about the news to see how it makes me feel - to get to the root of my own outlook and beliefs
[05:09] Take pause and really consider some what-ifs, and see what comes up for you
[06:08] Doing this exercise lets you take back some control rather than allowing yourself to be overrun and triggered by clickbait - you can decide where you stand regardless
[06:39] I share a news thing with Ben and Jerry and what happened on television regarding international politics
[07:58] I challenge you to get out of your circle of friends and family, and sit with your own thoughts, and figure out how you think and feel. And, consider why.
