ignorance is bliss - disengagement
ignorance is bliss - disengagement
Being a geek and nerd, I typically am on the Internet every day, sometimes for several hours.
I notice that most of the news sites I use mostly post news that causes me to become unhappy often.
I've decided that, as a way to internalize the sayings "think globally, act locally" and "try not to stress over things you have no control over" and "ignorance is bliss", I am going to try to refrain from constantly checking news sites.
Am not sure if I will be successful, but am going to try.

Another thing I am starting to do is, to un-follow, or silently and hopefully kindly(?) un-friend some people from social media.

The goal is self-stress management, and self-happiness management.
