Information is a wonderful thing but sometimes too much can be destructive. In our modern world we are daily bombarded with info from multiple sources whether that be newspapers, radio, TV, emails, magazines, books, brochures, internet and so forth and so on.  It is knowing what to give time to and what not to give time to that so often separates the successful from the average man on the street. So much time can be spent and often fruitlessly when we just accept all that is presented to us when probably 80% of what we look at/listen to serves us no real and immediate purpose. My proposal to you if you want to experience more success is to be more pro-active when deciding what you will give your time to -is it really worthwhile reading 20 emails each day when you could delete 15 of them without having to even open them. Does reading the newspaper build you up for the day or does it depress you. Get really picky and ask yourself of the info you are about to digest will help you meet your priorities - your purpose? In the same way that you decide intelligentlywhat to eat and what not to eat you can decide what info to spend your time on and what to lay aside.
