Let's BREAK AWAY From Our BAD HABITS

Let's BREAK AWAY From Our BAD HABITS

No sirrrrs, I DON'T come clean enough.  Because I had my fair share of BAD HABITS.  BUT who says that everything is cast in stone?  NOT true.  NOT at all.  So, Let's BREAK AWAY From Our BAD HABITS.  In our gruelling daily lives, how often we ask ourselves, WHERE did the hours go?  WHY did the tasks take that long?  WHY do we feel unfulfilled at the end of the day?  Could we find the common denominator for all those interrogatives?  Yesirrrrrs, you hit the nail on its head.  The common culprit are our time-wasting habits๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž

If you're perplexed, we DON'T need to dig deep to figure out the most common culprits.  LIKE your endless scrolling. Raise your hand if you've ever stumbled down the 'infinite scroll rabbit hole' on social media.  We all know the recurring pattern.  You just wanted to check on a message for a while but it turns out it stretches to an hour of mindless swiping of countless checks here and there.  Oh Oh, TIME EVAPORATES, leaving you with a vague sense of unease and the nagging feeling you accomplished nothing.  BTW, DON'T be fooled by those well-curated 'endless feeds'.  And WHEN you haven't subscribed, you'll get prompted to FOLLOW and SUBSCRIBE๐Ÿ“—๐Ÿ“™๐Ÿ“˜

So, let's NOT feel or act surprised that social media is here to stay and everything about it is designed to be addictive, hijacking your attention and turning you into a passive consumer of content.  Think of it like a casino slot machine, dispensing DOPAMINE hits every few scroll, keeping you hooked just long enough for another click.  BUT hold on, ISN'T it that social media is damn great to be connected to?  Absolutely.  Of course.  It is a powerful tool for communications and our communities.  BUT just like that tempting delicious slice of cake, too much can be detrimental.  We WON'T eat an entire cake in one sitting, right?  WHY do we subject ourselves to an unlimited buffet of digital distractions❓❓❓

NOW, here's the harsh truth.  That infinite scroll is a silent productivity KILLER.  Psychologists concluded in their studies that constant distractions shatter our ability to focus, leaving us fragmented and incapable of deep thinking.  It's like trying to write a novel in a crowded coffee shop, that constant noise will drown out any meaningful thought.  So, how do we BREAK AWAY From Our BAD HABITS?  Easier said than that BUT start with, SETTING BOUNDARIES.  Treat social media like a delicious dessert, a small indulgence to be enjoyed in moderation๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ’ง

Fearing BOREDOM?  Embrace BOREDOM.  The fear of missing out [FOMO] is a powerful tool used to keep us glued to our screens.  BUT experts say that BOREDOM can be a breeding ground for creativity and critical thinking.  Our takeaway?  Let your mind wander, step away from the screen and see WHAT sparks of inspiration might ignite you.  Let's BREAK AWAY From Our BAD HABITS❎❎❎
