Do you DARE to dream & more importantly do you dare to reach your Goals?

Our lives have been and are bombarded with so much information. Starting from the Internet, Social Media and the list goes on and on. The saddest part is, that most of it is not Good News. What makes it even worse is, at times even the Information is inaccurate, therefore there is a high probability, that we might not be getting good Information.

 When I was growing up as a kid, I was accustomed to getting the facts. In other words, that news was just reported, and it consisted of the dates, times, location and what happened. Based on the facts presented, we were able to draw our own conclusion for better or worse.

As I was getting older, I started noticing a change in the direction of the information we were receiving. Just to give you examples, the New York Newspapers each have their own agenda, the Washington papers have an agenda as well and the list goes on and on.

In my opinion this trend has gotten worse as time went on. Now I find that we are at the point where everything you read you must wonder is this True or is this False information. We are being given information, but many things are omitted hence the message we receive could cause us to draw a different interpretation, just because of the omission of certain facts. Anyway, you get the idea and you get my point.

I find that this trend will and is already having a detrimental effect on the younger and future generations, because they are being bombarded with all these opinionated “facts”. Hence it is, and it will affect the ability to judge what is True and what is False, strictly based on whose information we believe to be True. I am noticing how much harder I must gather information and determine what are the real facts and what are made up facts.

So, my point is, not only does this affect how we look at the political and economic climate of our land, but it goes deeper, we are looking at everything with a large dose of skepticism. If we are not we should be.

Every day brings us a new opportunity, provided we allow it to happen and we allow our dreams to rule the day.

My father was a dreamer, he would not allow all the challenges that was thrown in his path to stop him or debilitate him, he converted each challenge to another opportunity to reach his dreams. Now keep in mind, he was not bombarded with Social Media and millions of Internet’s bad information. He grew up in Communist Hungary and he was accustomed to getting “disinformation” and ‘misleading data, despite that, he managed to keep his Goals and Dreams in order.

The Opportunities are there, it is just harder to find it with all the distractions. There is a great quote that President Ronal Reagan said:

Each generation goes further than the generation preceding it because it stands on the shoulders of that generation. You will have opportunities beyond anything we've ever known.

Endre unfortunately the news media these days their job is to create the new instead of reporting the news.  Maybe even worst than that is how one sided they report the news.  It has gotten to the point I trust very little of what is reported these days.

Endre,

This is a reason why we cut cable, why we double check everything, and we listen to our gut feelings.  We are fortunate to have great people in our midst, and we thank them daily.  A

The news media has gotten so bad, and of course they don't disclose how they are owned by the same companies that are hawking their products at us 24/7.  One hands serves the other in their case and nothing is sacred.

And how about the "Siren Song" of all the goodies that are advertised now, all those items that you supposedly can't live without--and in January, the media tells you what a sucker you are for having gone in debt like that. Oh, and now you can buy it all for half price. That Siren Song is also sprung on us in real estate each and every day with marketing calls and emails. And, to my mind, worst of all, all the prescription drugs they are selling direct to the public--and you see these happy people in their big houses and at wonderful vacations enjoying life on those drugs -- unless, I presume, they get hit with some of those side effects and then can sue in a class action suit. This generation has to learn not to get sucked into all of this. Sorry, this ended up a bit of rant.

Good morning Endre Barath, Jr. ,

What an insightful post. So many distractions we are bombarded with consistently! We don't watch the news channels and what we hear or see we understand our filters must be on at all times. It's sad because it worries me about our younger generation and what decisions they will make in all aspects of their lives.

I'm not quite sure how I missed this post, Endre but, boy, you've hit on a topic that I have discussed with friends here on several occasions lately. It is scary how skeptical we have to be these days - especially about information we received regarding our nation.

Oh to have the simpler times back - but, I would like to keep a few modern day technologies. I guess you can't have your cake & eat it too! We'll get through this during our lifetime but, I do worry about our millennial generation...and their children...

Endre, it can be difficult to wade through the misinformation out there. I think you're right that it seems to be pervasive.

I have long held that there are at least a 1000 good things we can do. But, they are not always the Best.

I shoot for the Best and this helps weed out a lot of the distractions.

Thanks for sharing.
