Noisy World

We live in a noisy world. Now, more than ever, I think the message from our culture is to do more, be more open, and allow everything into your life. The fear is that if you don’t let ‘everything’ in, or you’re not available to ‘everything,’ you’ll miss opportunities.

For example, if you don’t have your phone with you at all times, you might miss opportunities. If you don’t follow all of your friends online, you might miss out, or they might judge you. If you’re not present on every platform, you’ll miss out, etc, etc.

In fact, the opposite is true. If you focus your life, and choose to stay guarded as to what you let in and out, you’ll have more opportunities than ever. You’ll have more time, more energy, and more focus. The people who genuinely care about you will understand.
