Can we abide by Philippians 4:8-9 in today’s world?

Philippians 8: Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9: Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

Is it possible in light of the distractions and entertainment options to abide by Philippians 4:8-9? With cable, movies, social media, medical and political stress it seems unavoidable to be influenced and think outside of what is honorable. Paul in his letter to the Philippian church is not saying they will be able to avoid anything not of God, but our focus should be directed toward God. We should keep God in our hearts and our minds, as in Deuteronomy 11:19 in keeping the word close, [teaching your children], “talking about [the word] when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up” NIV. We should surround ourselves with others who believe similarly, Proverbs 27:17 “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another”. We should mentor each other, challenge and hold each other accountable. In return, the peace of God will be in us.
