In the very first stanza of the Havamal, Odin says, "At every door-way, ere one enters, one should spy round, one should pry round for uncertain is the witting that there be no foeman sitting, within, before one on the floor."
From this stanza, the application is quite clear, to be cautious and aware of ones surroundings. Thus, being aware of the dangers of the outside world is abiding by Odin's will.
In stanza 23, Odin also says, "The unwise man is awake all night, and ponders everything over; when morning comes he is weary in mind, and all is a burden as ever."
From this stanza, the application is to not be worrisome, which is all too common when one absorbs too much negative media.
Pessimism & nihilism are the unfortunate effects of the modern-media industrial-complex. As Pagan people, we should be aware of the dangers and goings-ons of the world, but not to the point where you worry all the time.

Friday’s performance was part of a larger shift. For the week, the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell 2%, 2.9%, and 3.5%, respectively. That hurt tech stocks. For the past few weeks, the 10-year yield has traded between 1.72% and 2%, as traders moved into the bond for safety when Russia headlines were ugly—and out of it when headlines improved. Now, the yield is touching its pandemic-era high. If the yield breaks above that level, that could signal that it’s on a sustainable path higher. Higher long-dated bond yields make future profits less valuable—and many tech companies are valued on the basis of profits forecast for many years in the future. Again, in contrast to Facebook, Google and Twitter, Telegram's founder Pavel Durov runs his company in relative secrecy from Dubai. If you initiate a Secret Chat, however, then these communications are end-to-end encrypted and are tied to the device you are using. That means it’s less convenient to access them across multiple platforms, but you are at far less risk of snooping. Back in the day, Secret Chats received some praise from the EFF, but the fact that its standard system isn’t as secure earned it some criticism. If you’re looking for something that is considered more reliable by privacy advocates, then Signal is the EFF’s preferred platform, although that too is not without some caveats. For example, WhatsApp restricted the number of times a user could forward something, and developed automated systems that detect and flag objectionable content.
