Action points
- Put yourself on a news diet. Change your browser homepage from BBC News. Don’t wake up to the Today programme. Don’t watch the 10 o’clock news at bedtime. Buy a box set instead.
- If your job requires you to stay connected, then try to limit yourself to industry updates and weekly or monthly news reviews. But ignore the news.
- Set up alerts on Google to keep you up to date with those things that are necessary then you can ignore the rest.
