So I posted and shared on Facebook yesterday that I have no desire to know who the winner of the presidential race is. I didn’t realize at the time what else would be effected. I will try to innumerate the things I have discovered.
So if I don’t want to know who won the presidential race I can’t watch TV. At least the broadcast type. So streaming; Netflix, amazon, etc.
I can’t spend time on Facebook. The app I use to post my blog makes it possible for me to post on Facebook without going on Facebook. That way I won’t get news or current events.
I can stay away from Twitter. Nothing but current events there anyway
No you tube, unless I can figure out a way to select what comes through.
I can write more in my journal and pick and choose the bits that I want to share. In fact I’m doing that right now.
I can spend more time on my budget and organizing how and where my money will go.
Now that I will actively being trying to avoid the news and writing about how I will avoid it I can see there are many things I will be able to do that I wasn’t able to do before.
So how will I keep up on current events?
Well after I give myself a chance to detox, I can start looking at newspapers online. I can decide for myself and don’t need to let the talking heads decide what I should hear.
So my desire to not know who the winner of the presidential race is, has far reaching consequences.
If you can think of something, good or bad about my decision please let me know. Please write your comments on the blog comment section. I’m trying to avoid Facebook as much as possible
