Ron Jacobson Creative Coach

In todays world, negativism is at the top of most everyones mind daily. We hear of high gas prices, food prices rising, natural disasters and failure on all fronts from real estate to commerce. This is nothing new. Man has had a fetish for ‘bad’ news for decades if not forever. It will never go away; man feeds off of others difficult situations, probably making themselves feel better with other peoples woes. But we are better than that. And we can control what and how we absorb information and ‘bad’ news from others around us.Creativity comes in many forms. And one of the forms is how to control your emotions and reactions to facts and gossip that others throw at you either directly or through public media. Being informed without being ‘transformed’ is hard to do. One must keep in perspective what you hear or see. Information that one can use to help make daily decisions or add to your information storage that can be used for future decisions are needed by us all. One needs to look and listen to all of this information respecting the fact that it’s just information. Once you get yourself emotionally attached, it can take control of you. And pull you in to the overall sentiment of negativism. So use your head, stick to your goals and absorb and use what you want; not letting others infusing their less than positive attitude on you!
