Why This Lockdown Will Be Different.
Tunnel vision, that’s exactly what I’m using going into another lockdown.
I learnt a lot from the last lock down & this time I’m having tunnel vision, focusing only on the stuff I can control & keeping more of the stuff I can’t out of my sight.
I only need news updates anytime there’s change I need to know about, otherwise I don’t need that negative repetition in my life.
I know a lot of people have & are struggling with anxiety atm, anxiety is largely future based & often people feel fearful of what’s to come.
Well to me the news ain’t helping here, it just seems to speculate over every potential negative situation, creating a new plot line of fear for our clever minds to make a movie out of..... You know like the one you make up before most flights you get on, but it never actually happens.
Now of course this is a serious situation I’m not playing that down at all I’m just saying I don’t need to be reminded of it every min of every day, and if it’s all starting to get to you then maybe seeing/hearing less is a good option.
