When it's extremely difficult to make up your mind. Having
that power of choice can actually weaken somebody. On this
episode of The Choice, we're going to explore the effects
of making the choice to ignore daylight savings time. Plus
new research shows that many people are making the choice
to stop listening to music. What's up with that? My
(00:20):
name is er. Life is a series of choices. Who
decides when you're not making the right choice? Is it
the fear of going wrong? The greatest lessons in life
are often lost inside hidden away attempts and concepts. Well,
it's time to reopen your heart. Having a choice is
your daily gift. On this highway we learn to trust mirages.
(00:40):
What is the choice making a choice to ignore daylight
savings time? I mean, what would be the most significant
difference between those that followed the norm against those who said, nah, huh,
I'm not playing this daylight savings thing anymore. First and foremost,
your clock would only be off for eight months, which
doesn't seem like much. But being one who has forgot
to move the clock, I know for a fact that
(01:02):
business decision makers have no patience for anyone running their
life one hour behind everybody else. Science says, if your
choice isn't to spring forward, you'll have more sunshine in
the morning than those who woke up one hour earlier
than you, which is said to be the most natural
progression of the sun. Yep, moving the clock ahead an
hour is messing with the planet's reality. Sleep experts would
(01:25):
love it if we would stop playing with the hands
on the clock. Our sleeping patterns are badly interrupted. Twice
a year. Millions of people struggle with the shift in
their routines. There's less disruption in their circadian rhythms. He
coming up next. It's really happening. People are making the
choice to no longer listen to music. What's up with that?
(01:47):
He thanks for coming back to the choice. Because of
digital technology, the choice to listen to music has been
cut way back to occasional or zero music altogether. It's
become more entertaining to listen to talk or let's be honest,
let's look at the numbers for true crime podcasts going
through the roof every single week. So the question is
(02:08):
why is it that people are breaking free of music. Well,
it's because they don't need that constant stimulation of sound,
meaning they're choosing not to use music as a form
of entertainment or background noise. The physical choice to avoid
it is what's taking place. One reason why they want
to focus more on the environment or to give their
mind a rest from external stimuli. How can mor of
(02:30):
us break free from the sounds of music? Number one rule?
You've got to set boundaries, locate places where you just
don't need music. Turn off notifications, my god, YouTube and iHeartRadio.
They're always sending those things to me on my smartphone.
They're unstoppable. And find alternative activities. Once again, the mental
health expert suggests podcasts or tapping into audio books. I
(02:55):
happen to like audible. I'm arrow and that's what I
was writing while the sun was waking up on a
brilliant new day.
