BRX Pro Tip: Opinions
Stone Payton: [00:00:00] And we are back with Business RadioX Pro Tips. Stone Payton and Lee Kantor here with you. Lee, what’s your opinion on opinions?
Lee Kantor: [00:00:09] Well, in today’s world, especially on social media, you’re seeing that so many of us have opinions that they can’t wait to share with everybody, and they think it’s critically important that their opinion gets out there.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:23] My point is that you don’t have to have an opinion on everything. And the fact that we’re bombarded with so much information every day on so many different platforms, on so many different topics, to me, it’s impossible to have opinions on all these things. And when you realize that a lot of this information is engineered to provoke an emotion of some kind with you, and it’s usually a negative emotion, to me, it is more than okay to just absorb the information without having an opinion, without having a reaction to the information, and especially not reacting right away.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:57] So, I recommend taking a mental health break and stop reacting emotionally to everything and anything you’re reading. I think that your stress levels and your mental health will thank you.
