One Year Without Social Media

The first 1,000 people to use the link will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare: https://skl.sh/lucyallan06221

I deleted social media one year ago, and digital minimalism changed my life. This isn’t some joke of a self-improvement tip, it really made a difference to my quality of life. I discuss how my mental health improved, how I gained real friends, how I have become more productive and became a better and happier person. As a genz, social media is not all bad, but I think it’s more important than ever (after 1 year of being inside) to take a break from TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter and Facebook.

I deleted social media 6 months ago, and it changed my life. This isn’t some joke of a self-improvement tip, it really made a difference to my quality of life. I discuss how my mental health improved, how I gained real friends, how I have become more productive and picked up the habit of reading again and became a better and happier person. As a genz, we could all use some time off tiktok and out with making real life connections and I hope this encourages you to do so.

How Social Media is Destroying Society

June 25, 2021 by Admin

When is the last time you’ve walked into a restaurant and saw an entire table of friends on their phone, each content to be in their own world – nearly unaware of the reality around them?

With the meteoric rise in popularity for documentaries like The Social Dilemma, it safe to say that questioning the effect that social media addiction has on our society a growing sentiment and realization within today’s culture. With many people decided to take a social media detox, or quit social media all together.

But what is the path forward in the new age of social media, and the side effects of the rapid evolution of the technology and the algorithms that control how we interact with the platform? Is it as simple as turning off big tech, or perhaps to quit social media? Or is there a way we can start to take control our use to find a healthy balance for social media and mental health?

Why Steve Jobs Didn’t Use Social Media at All

February 12, 2021 by Admin

Half the world spends two to six hours a day on social media, and those numbers keep going up. A lot of the credit goes to Steve Jobs, the inventor of the iPhone.

But when you picture Steve, make sure it’s with his head up, addressing a crowd, looking into someone’s eyes, or exploring the world, not bent over the little screen so many of us hold in our hands. Steve Jobs was the least likely in any crowd to be gazing at social media! He didn’t use Facebook, and he didn’t use Twitter.

SUMMARY:
– Like most inventors, Steve was always looking for the next idea, and he believed there was no substitute for a good old face to face exchange.
– And while Steve Jobs did invent the iPhone, he didn’t do it alone! He shared that credit with more than ten other inventors!
– Another reason Steve didn’t spend time on social media was that so many of his good ideas come from the random inspiration he encountered in the “real” world.
– When discussing creativity, Steve talked a lot about “connecting the dots,” but it might be more accurate to say that Steve believed that first you had to “collect” the dots.
– You’ve probably heard that Steve Jobs dropped out of college, and that’s true, but it’s also a little misleading. Not only did Steve stick around campus, he kept taking classes!
– You see, once Steve no longer had to worry about fulfilling “requirements” for a major, he was free to observe any class that interested him.
– Steve “collected the dot” and “dropped in” to a calligraphy class! Years later, when he was designing the first apple computers, Steve used the things he learned in Calligraphy class to design the first suite of computer fonts.
– So if you, unlike Steve Jobs, are constantly attached to your screen, always do your research. That’s what third party trackers are doing…their research on you!
– A good tip for browsing the web is the classic “If something sounds too good to be true, it usually is.”
– Never give out personal information like your social security number or mother’s maiden name.
– Never post anything on line that you don’t want to have “Track” you forever. Be especially careful with the jokes.
– In April of 2017, officials at Harvard discovered a Facebook group where accepted students made some jokes in bad taste. Even though the students insisted that it was all in fun, and many of the jokes were about themselves, Harvard revoked the admission from ten students.
– This doesn’t mean you have to give up social media. It’s fun, informative, and lots of jobs and schoolwork require it. Just practice safe behavior.

30 Days Without Social Media | My Transformation

September 16, 2020 by Admin

Social media became the new great addiction of our modern age. As many other creators already did a social media detox I got curious and decided to try it for myself. So I deleted Instagram, Facebook, Youtube and Snapchat for 30 days. In the beginning it was hard to break my habits, but after 2 weeks I started to see real results. I became more productive, focused and had an overall mental clarity. As I spent less time on my phone, I reconnected with many of my old friends and was able to use my time in many other ways. To be honest, I can only think of positive aspects that I took away from this detox. I encourage everybody else to do the same and I’m sure you will see the same benefits within no time. Enjoy the video!

I Quit Social Media for 3 Months (& I’m not going back)

February 7, 2020 by Admin

In August, I decided to quit social media, specifically Instagram, Twitter and Facebook (and I stopped uploading on Youtube). My relationship with social media was toxic and I knew I had to go cold-turkey to overcome my issues with it. Embracing digital minimalism has been a life-changing experience for me, but quitting social media isn’t necessary for everyone. In this video, I explore the pros and cons of quitting social media.
