How Can We Leverage SOCIAL MEDIA?

How Can We Leverage SOCIAL MEDIA?

Heard of admissions and confessions that he/she was once a 'professional waster'?  And that the 'WASTE PLACE' was SOCIAL MEDIA.  Does all these sound all too familiar?  Binge-watch Instagram reels AS IF that was one's profession and someone is going to transfer hundreds of dollars for seeing random people doing random things completely unrelated to you?   How Can We Leverage SOCIAL MEDIA❓❓❓

Now, let's scrape the surface what that leave us? EXCESSIVE BOREDOM because IT SEEMS that SOCIAL MEDIA is more fun [?] than dealing with REAL LIFE. So obviously, reality starts to seem dull and boring.  Next, how is it FEELING GUILTY for wasting your time?  And then, subconsciously registering details of others' lives and end up feeling JEALOUS and then you start comparing WHAT and WHY we DON'T have the same things as others do❔❔❔

Then, your brain starts to numb to a level that we start to act like an addict.  After every few minutes, we get that feeling of PHYSICAL ITCH to use your mobile phone again [EVEN IF just to open and lock it again instantly]!@#$?  Now having spoken how SOCIAL MEDIA impacts our brains and lives, how do we leverage SOCIAL MEDIA by getting out of it❎❎❎

So HOW?  With that pandemic now behind us, how about prioritizing face-to-face interactions?  There's nothing magical about genuine human connections that NO amount of virtual interaction can replace.  Consider nurturing our relationships by engaging in deep conversations, creating lasting memories, and truly PRESENT IN THE MOMENT.  Obviously, this is NOT feasible if there's geographical distance❌❌❌

To cap it off, can we consider cultivating a mindful lifestyle?  Those practices will help you slow down, be more aware of your thoughts and emotions.  To be clear, I am NOT advocating that SOCIAL MEDIA is to be ignored.  NOT AT ALL.  We got to do the balancing act for us to LEVERAGE SOCIAL MEDIA❗❗❗
