Stories and Strategies with Curzon Public Relations

This is an episode about “Positivity” which has everything to do with communication. It’s a state of mind we all want but let’s be honest, it can also be really annoying. False positivity is an irritating personality quirk.

The official definition from the Oxford Dictionary implies that positivity is not something you are; it's more something you feel.

Positive Psychology is an investment in who you are and what you can do to live your best life. Your best life looks and feels different every day.

Annoyed yet? 😊

Progress, in a World of Cancel Culture

1 Recommendations

Cancel Culture is a neologism meaning it’s a newly coined term. It’s essentially the phenomenon of publicly shaming, rejecting, and ceasing to provide support to people, companies, or stores if they are deemed unacceptable. Celebrities are frequent targets but not exclusively. The shaming, for the most part, is done through social media.

T.S. Eliot once wrote, “Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.”

But how are we, as people, supposed to progress if accountability, and the inherent ability to “cancel” is left to the unaccountable?
