Who Benefits from Your Fears?

Who benefits from your fears?



Because it's certainly not you.







We live in a society that continually bombards us with things to be afraid of...the news is SCARY!

But it's not in perspective.


Yes, bad things happen...but what we see on the news is out of proportion with the good...if you watch the news...you must think that by living in New York, I'm in constant danger for my life...but I'm not...New York City is actually safer than Kansas City...

Okay...off topic.

Reality...great people are everywhere, doing amazing things...and you are safe...statistically...

Here's something else to chew around in your brain...the news is paid for and approved by the advertisers...as are all the television shows...reality and fiction...the advertisers...hear that? The advertisers...if they don't want you to know something, you'd don't...and if they want you to be afraid of something...you probably will be...because if you're afraid...they win...they financially benefit from your fears.

Who would really want 46 million Americans to live without healthcare? But daily we are fed fears of what those people being taken care of will do to hurt the rest of us. It's not reality.

By remembering that all media is bought by an advertiser, I am able to keep what I read and view in perspective. I also do research to find some shred of the truth...this can be very hard. But one well-known example...reality: No one ever found a razor blade in an apple at Halloween...yet, almost all of us had our Halloween trick or treating curbed over that fear.

Live your life...the end result is same for everyone...only the journey is different. Wouldn't you like yours to be free and fearless?

That's what I'm aiming for.
