I’ve been thinking a lot about the negative I absorb throughout my day-to-day existence as of late. I wonder what effect it has on me, as in mood or attitude. I tend to like violent TV shows or old country songs about revenge or killing in some fashion. Not that I don’t like positive stuff, but the trend is toward the rougher things.
This has me wanting to do an experiment for a while, where I try to listen and watch much more positive entertainment. There are some shows I will finish the season, but as the more negative shows come to a close I will make sure my next pics or more positive, or at least educational, maybe.
I feel I need to force good influences into my life in order to stay positive, even a good person, maybe. It’s so easy to go off the deep end with the world’s current climate and all the negative inputs that are offered to us. It seems we are bombarded from all directions.
So, I will stop listening to some podcasts. War movies and action movies will be replaced by light-hearted chick flicks, dramas, or inspirational stories. And of course more positive and inspirational songs, maybe some spiritual for that matter also.
Let’s see where this takes me and how I feel in a few months. If I could please ask those who read this to hold me accountable also, if you see me posting about something I’ve watched, read, or listened to on the negative side, please point it out to me and remind me of this goal.
Cheers!
