Welcome to GREAT NEWS!
GREAT VISION:
Our vision is to eliminate apathy by spreading good news and showing the world how much progress we’ve actually made. In a world filled with negativity and pessimism, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed and helpless. We want to change that by sharing stories of hope, progress, and positive change.
We believe that the news we consume has a significant impact on our overall well-being and outlook on life. Unfortunately, traditional news sources often focus on the negative, sensationalizing stories of tragedy and conflict. While it’s important to be aware of the challenges we face as a society, we also need to celebrate our successes and recognize the progress we’ve made.
GREAT MISSION:
At GREAT NEWS, we are committed to bringing you stories of progress and positivity from around the world. From advances in science and technology to inspiring human-interest stories, we cover it all. Our goal is to help our subscribers stay informed about the positive changes happening in the world and to inspire them to take action in their own lives.
We believe that by sharing good news, we can make a real difference in the world. When we focus on the positive, we are more likely to feel hopeful and optimistic about the future. We are also more likely to take action to create positive change in our own lives and in the world around us.
Thank you for joining us on this journey to eliminate apathy and spread good news. We hope that our podcast and newsletter inspires you and brings a lot of positivity into your life.

Welcome to The Daily Quote – I'm Andrew McGivern.
Today's quote comes from Elbert Hubbard, who said:
”Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.”
Read that again. You will never get out of it alive.
That's the punchline. And it's also the truth.
Hubbard's making a darkly humorous point: no matter how seriously you take life, no matter how stressed you get, no matter how much you worry and control and obsess – the ending is the same for everyone.
So why are you making yourself miserable in the middle?
Taking life seriously has its place. Your work matters. Your relationships matter. Your goals matter.
But taking life TOO seriously? That's when you lose perspective. That's when you forget that none of this is permanent. That mistakes aren't fatal. That embarrassment fades. That most of what you're stressed about won't matter in a year.
We treat temporary problems like permanent catastrophes. We agonize over things that won't matter next month. We let small failures ruin entire days.
And for what? You're not getting out of this alive anyway. None of us are.
Hubbard isn't saying nothing matters. He's saying lighten up. Laugh more. Take risks. Make mistakes. Embarrass yourself. Try the thing that might not work.
Because the worst-case scenario isn't that serious. You're mortal either way. Might as well enjoy the ride.
So here's the question: What are you taking too seriously right now? What temporary problem are you treating like a permanent catastrophe?
Because you're not getting out of this alive. None of us are. So you might as well lighten up and enjoy it while you're here.
That's it for today. I'm Andrew McGivern – I'll see you in the next one with another Daily Quote.
