One strategy that we can proactively implement is to minimize our news inputs.  The world seems to always deliver the bad news, and nothing is going to change there.  The media's job is to sell fear and overwhelm.  When we are confident and have a sense of inner peace, we show up differently for ourselves, our people, in our work and community.   As consumers we need to put excellent content into our hearts and minds to achieve the inner peace we seek.  Setting boundaries and goals for ourselves is important.  If we choose, we can wean ourselves off the news, listen to a positive podcast, read inspiring stories, or set a big uncomfortable goal.  Making the choice. Deciding is what makes us powerful.
