With the availability of news 24 hours, even if most of it is repetitive, I have certainly got into the habit of checking the news online or on TV once in a hour when I am awake. Fortunately I am still not addicted to this. I can still focus on my work and not bother to see the news.
But I feel this is something that is happening to a lot of people. Addiction to 'What next' syndrome is what the news channels want. Its a constant noise in your brain that makes you bite your nails as to what happened to the corruption charges on Robert Vadra or which is the next SUV launch...?
What if I dont know any of this ?
Nothing happens I believe. I will still be able to breathe, live, eat and sleep.
The important thing is to understand this. Even if you keep away this news channel stuff causing constant restlessness in you, restlessness is something that people cannot do away with on even other stuff like the work. You constantly think of work or some other.
The answer to get rid of it is very easy. Keep reminding yourself that YOU can be absolutely fine even if none of these exist. Thats the key. Try by leaving it for few days and be sharply looking at you. You will feel you are absolutely fine without it. Remember it is the mind finally which requires this habit of munching in you. Unfortunately it is wired to you and you identify yourself as that. You should understand that if you starve the mind by observing that it is getting into a addiction of some sort by depriving it of what it wants (the bad ones like this), you may be in a better position to handle yourself.
Iam sure lot of you do this. But this is just for those who is looking for a solution to such addictions.
The more you decide what your mind should chew, the better life you will have!
