Just the Facts

Good morning,

It's Friday...and Rebecca Black's "Friday" YouTube video has surpassed a hundred-MILLION views. So maybe that means Friday's really are special! But if you're reading Sunny Notes instead of watching Rebecca, here's today's tip:

Get the facts first.

We put ourselves at risk when we draw conclusions, make decisions or take actions based on incomplete information. Sure, we might never have ALL the information about any given situation, but it's important to collect as many facts as possible before acting. Hours of unnecessary worry can be eliminated and many painful mistakes avoided simply by having the patience to withhold judgment or decision-making, until more information is available.

One of the most common actions people take before they have all the facts - gossip. One of the most effective ways to get accurate information about a situation involving another person - ask them!

Let’s get down to the facts of the matter - and have a sunny day!
