The Shock Cycle: Dealing With Bad News

  1. You don’t see bad news (events are still small and aren't reported).
  2. You ignore the bad news because even once it’s reported it’s easy to dismiss if you’re not familiar with it.
  3. You deny the bad news because it's more comforting than admitting they’re about to hurt you.
  4. You panic at the bad news when you realize the threat is real.
  5. You accept the bad news and adapt to the new reality.

The Shock Cycle: Dealing With Good News

The Shock Cycle: Dealing With Good News

  1. After accepting the bad news, you don't really see good news anymore or you ignore them altogether because you are nervous to report optimism in times of crisis.
  2. You then deny good news, because you think good news must be wrong or out of context.
  3. You realize you missed the good news, but only looking back and can’t believe how clear the signs of improvement were.
  4. You now accept the good news, realizing that risk has receded and you can once again enjoy the fruits of progress.
  5. You abandon your attachment to bad news as good news dominates the media and optimism becomes socially acceptable again.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.
