7 Tips on How to Navigate Through This Crazy World
If you were to describe this world in one word, what would it be? Probably “crazy,” right? More than half the stuff you see and read about in the news is enough to have you just shake your head. We live in a crazy world that seems to get even more looney by the day (which is actually hard to believe). So, how do we navigate through this crazy world and come out the other side in one piece, along with some sanity?
Well, I’m not saying we have all the answers to solve the world’s problems, but we came up with a list of seven tips that you can use to help alleviate some of the stress and frustration that can come about from trying to navigate through this crazy world.
Let’s dive in!
1. Watch less television
Want to set yourself up for failure and unrealistic expectations? Sit in front of the television all night. Not to knock shows like “The Bachelorette” and the similar, but you’re putting yourself into la-la land by thinking the things you watch are reality. I had dinner with a contestant on “The Biggest Loser,” and the things she told me about the show were horrifying and nothing like what takes place in the real world. It’s no wonder she gained every pound back after the show and then some.
What you see on television is not reality — not even close. Stop sitting in front of the idiot box for hours each night and start being more active both physically and mentally. Go for a walk, play a game, hit the gym, read a book (or listen to an audiobook — preferably, one of mine), meditate, focus on your breathing for 15 minutes, etc. The last thing you want to do is park your butt on the couch all night eating junk.
Not only that but stay away from the news. It’s nothing but doom and gloom. As they say, “If it doesn’t bleed, it doesn’t lead.” Rather than express the good happening in this crazy world, all they seem to report on is the bad.
Get away from this crazy world by slowing things down, turning off the television, and focusing on yourself and your goals.
2. Learn new skills
If you want to become better at any aspect of life, you’re going to need to put in the work. That means honing in on your skills and learning new ones. Between books, YouTube, and Google, you can find out just about anything these days. While you may not become an “expert” overnight or even at all, you can improve your skills little by little, which can lead you down a better career path and potentially open up new doors.
