Think of the paper as a paper version of the “feed” I described earlier. Do you need to spend your time reading other people’s opinions designed to drive your emotional engagement, either stroking or enraging you? Life is too short. Same for politics. Does the fact that you follow this political party or another contribute to your productivity in any way, shape, or form? Does being outraged by Donald Trump help you get new customers, or complete that report, or write that book? Does being offended by his opponents, “fake news” or any other new help you in your life at all? Take my advice: FORGET ALL GENERIC NEWS AND POLITICS. If required, and only if needed, read news focused on your specific industry and nothing else. Stay away from getting sucked into politics. support the show: https://anchor.fm/60usefulseconds/support
