Steemian friends:
On this day I want to ask you all, have you ever felt tired of cyberspace, and or you feel bored with everyday activities that are just focused on social media? And that integration could be a sign that you should start fasting social media. Social media fasting is quitting the world of social media, stopping from cyberspace activities.
And to want to start it should be done a day, three days, a week or even a month. And maybe you'll miss the latest news, but what's going to happen? And the world will not stop because you can not social media.
But moreover, there are some benefits that you will feel if you remember from the world of social media. Here it is 5 waves!
1. More focus on ourselves
and if you are usually busy with a mobile phone and do a swafoto or take any photo to upload to your social account, then by doing social media fasting, you will start to see this world from your own point of view. Not just for imaging in social media.
And you will focus on your activities that may have been delayed because they have spent time with social media. So cleaning the room or just tidying the contents of the closet can be a very useful activity during your fasting with social media.
2. More enjoy all the things around you
So while busy with social media, and usually you become "blinded" from the events around you. By taking a break from the virtual world, then you will be able to see clearly the events in your neighborhood.
And maybe there was a new neighbor you did not realize had moved since a week ago. Or there is a new culinary place around where you live.
3. Fix your way of communicating
Perhaps what we know in social media, we often do not have to think about the rules of polite language as it has been taught in school. And instead, many people are abusing social media functions and communicating without rules and seemingly disrespectful.
4. Always get closer to the nearest person
Often again hanging out with friends but everything is playing HP alone? Hanging out at the cafe that is wifinya then busy with social media each?
Opportunity to exchange stories and ask news to be meaningless because it is too focused on social media. Or even if chatting, what is spoken about is viral things that often have nothing to do with us.
and if you are tired of all this, then start fasting social media and if necessary ask your friends or your family also do it. because talking about something real is more interesting. And besides that, closeness with the people closest feels more real in the appeal if only for the benefit of photos in social media.
5. Stop always comparing yourself with others
Usually in social media, people are competing to show themselves better and than others. Whether it's in terms of economy, achievement, or even just ability in certain things. And many people who show off food photos, then it seems as if they are upper class elite who every day eat in a fancy restaurant.
and consciously or unconsciously, when looking at other people's posts about their extraordinary life, we become jealous and compare ourselves with that person. And must be really tired if you have to follow a lifestyle like this right?
With social fasting, you will be more grateful for everything you have and stop comparing yourself with others.
Hopefully useful and become a better life inspiration
