![]() I’ve done this in two ways since I used to consume social media on two devices: My phone and my laptop. It would be best if you created an environment in which you’re not confronted with the pull of social media. You need to keep it up and need some tricks to keep up the abrupt behaviour change. Like everything in life, stopping something abruptly needs some preparation. I knew this method would work for me since it had worked with smoking a little more than 450 days ago. I had to shut off the content dams instantly. There could be no stopgaps or fail-safes. Remember to be nice to others in the process. And even when others don’t benefit at all, that’s also fine. As long as you choose to help others along the way, or create jobs or create value, it’s fine to focus on you. Doing things for you isn’t selfish in any way. It’s no big deal to be selfish ones in a while, as a matter of fact. ![]() Stop helping others achieve their dreams. What if we saw every minute we gave them as a lost minute that we could have spent on ourselves? What if we viewed it from a different angle. What if we spent that time that we dedicate to others on ourselves. Why do we spend so much of our time on others? In the end, she needs us to help her with clicks, likes, shares and follows. She’s there to reach her own goals, and I respect that. She’s probably a nice girl without bad intentions, but trust me. She’s there for her own dreams and aspirations. Keep the following in your mind: That fitness guru you love watching on Youtube is not there for you, some of them are partly altruistic, but most of them are there because they can make money. You’re trading in minutes of your hard-earned time every day so that others can collect these minutes and translate them into wealth that can be used to buy the freedom that you crave all day.Īnd the funny thing is, the more minutes you invest into someone, the less you get out of it and the quicker the influencer achieves their aspirations and the more absent-minded you become in the process. You are literally watching others achieve their own dreams every day, and you’re not getting anything in return. Why you should quit with consuming so much content I still am a struggling content junky, but I’m starting to move away from my addiction one step at a time, and so can you. ![]() We need all of that, we need it like a drug, a fix. You need to see them, and you need to know how they’re feeling, what they are doing, you need to stay on top of them, their businesses and their everything. ![]() You need your yogis, productivity guru’s, and you’re make-up artists and your spiritual beings. If you’re reading this, that means you and I are probably pretty similar, or at least we were. I want you to feel the impact of watching influencers all day, and I want you to feel how much time you’re investing in them.ĭoes it feel like a miss alignment of your energy already? Look in your phone and check out your screentime. How many hours do you spend looking at influencers and liking their stories of success and personal achievement? Really, think about it for a second. On weekend days it could easily be 6 hours plus. How many hours a day are you consuming content that others have produced? For me, it was 3-4 hours a day. ![]() Let’s identify the problem together and fix it, today! The problem Instagram, Youtube, Facebook, and all the others are amazing for their ability to create movements, but in general, they are leeching bloodsucking collective amygdala’s. Social media addictions are holding us back from doing what we should be doing. Finally, you increase craving in novelty, which leads to a reduction in personal persistence. You’re decreasing your social intelligence. Second to that, by doing so, you’re actually harming yourself by reducing your attention span. Currently, you are spending your time helping others succeed without getting any piece of the pie. ![]()
