TIP # 4

Most of us take life way too seriously. Sure we have problems, every one does. But don’t dwell on them. In this time of economic turmoil, it’s a good idea to stay away from TV News, newspapers and radio shows that focus only on what’s wrong with the world. It’s time to focus on what is going right. If listening to the evening news—especially just before your head hits the pillow—gets you up at night, or never lets you sleep… then STOP listenting to the evening news.

Don’t worry, the world is not going anywhere. If you need to, check in once a week… Meet the Press on Sunday morning with a cinnamon roll and a cup of coffee… that’s not a bad way to see what’s going on in the outside world.

I’m not suggesting you hide your head in the sand, though some people may just need that right about now. Take yourself to a museum. Read a good book. Take yourself to a play, or a movie. Spend the $10 and even indulge in some popcorn!

Invest in a Good Time!
