How to PREVENT being manipulated into becoming negative.
Part 1
The most frequent reason people allow themselves to be manipulated is they are not intelligent enough to know the difference.
Here is a loose example:
If a person tells
you that all birds that live around and on the water are 'ducks', and you do not have information to refute that, then you may assume the other person is accurate. From that point on, you may continue to believe that all birds that live around and on the water are 'ducks'.
Sure, this is only about ducks today. But, if you continue to build up a mental
library of erroneous information, not facts, you can easily be swayed to believe other, more ridiculous or sinister things.
TODAY, people seem less interested in facts and statistics, and more interested in news stories that that go against the facts. This has led to the NEWS reporting biased events and embellished commentary that are far from the
truth.
Manipulation - News shows make more money reporting NEGATIVE events. News reporting is supposed to give you a snapshot of the world you are living in. Today, from what is reported, we must be living in a terrible world full of anger and despair - truly DARK DAYS...
NO WE DO NOT!
This leads me to my first piece of advice to you.
Turn OFF the television.
Turn OFF the News.
Many of the shows on TV are now expressing negative agendas. If you want to move your life to a higher level, STOP feeding garbage into your mind.
I hope this helps you achieve your desire to become the best person you can be, with your life filled with joy and love.
...and take steps to become more intelligent.
