Opt Out of TV

Opt Out of TV

What could you do with an extra
hour a week? An extra hour a day?
What could change in your life?
TV bombards us with negativity
- and not just the news.
Commercials create needs we
didn’t previously have. The media
sets physical and emotional
standards most of us can’t ever
reach, creating a rift between
who we are and who we feel we
have to be. Unable to meet these
impossible standards, we end
up spiraling into depression and
hopelessness. We wind up sitting
in front of the TV hoping to
your life.

Being pummeled with bad news
all the time damages us, even
when we don’t notice it. How can
we live with hope, how can we
dance through life with joyous
steps when we’re bombarded with
fear? Steeping ourselves in this
negativity keeps us from focusing
on the positive.
What can you do? You can
opt out of the news; there’s no
requirement to watch or listen.
You’ll be far better off without
it - and when something actually
important happens, you’ll still
know. People will talk about it and
it will seep through, and then you
can choose to either take heed or
ignore.


they have a choice, too.
Choose to live your life differently,
and you start a revolution simply

by being yourself.
