Why You’re Anxious Reading The News

  • Many people suffer because they misprioritise what they care about.
  • By overweighting external, global events over which each person has little direct influence we will begin to feel helpless when things change.
  • This is not to say that global events aren’t important but rather it is more healthy to prioritise things where you’re able to exert a lot of influence and thus, change.
  • When you become overly invested outside where you’re able to influence you’ll get burnt out.
  • Caring about global events too much might be a sign that there aren’t enough immediate personal events to care about or are maybe not being given their due treatment.
