Social Media is taking Control of Your life.

Social Media is growing rapidly from last few years. Millions of people are using, to go with the trend. It's an all-in-one platform, where you can see everything, whether it could be a meme or your friends post.

People mostly use social media because they believe it's helpful for them to stay connected with their friends and family members and see the other side of the world that what they are up to.

Well, it’s a recent tool in the market, which helps people to stay connected and tell their story.

 But the social networking is literally taking control of our lives, as it is causing more and more people to live in virtual world rather than live and enjoy their own life. You are not living your own life, you are living societies life, your life is beyond the screens. There's a lot of difference between the lived and online life.

Nowadays, if you have an active social platform, in which you post your best life and keep the public up to date so you're considered as a ''cool person''.

If we continued this situation for the upcoming years, so we are seriously going to affect our future, happiness and our mental health. Because it is distracting our mind, that our needs start to become our addiction.

It has completely changed our lives from past few years.

People loves social media because it's completely open source, you can do whatever you want and you only have the power to send someone message or share their post.

The technology isn't the main problem we are the problem. So, the things that we share on social media is only one side of the picture, we don't know that how that person is feeling at that time does that person even happy with his life or not. In short form, we don't know behind the scenes of that person’s life.

I believe that social media is a platform which is defined by the word ''flex''. Wait a second let me be clear.

Look people post such stuff on their social media accounts, that they are living their best lives. Sadly, that also involves you and me. As someone's showing off their wealth and their driving skills, while the rest of the world swings their branded handbags and keep the social media up to date that what are they doing next.

Let’s get deeper into it.

Whenever, I post a picture on my Instagram or any other platform. I've probably taken hundreds of images to get one or two better pictures that I can post. I wonder that most of you did the same. But the public literally have no clue what's going through me or you. Who knows, we could have wasted a lot of time posting that picture.

I wonder that most of you did the same. But the public literally have no clue what's going through me or you. Who knows, we could have wasted a lot of time posting that picture or we might just be depressed.

Apart from that, whenever we go to nice place, all we do is take pictures of that place to post it on social network to inform your followers. Even though those people haven't seen that place before. But just to let them know.

That's not how it works, your followers can't even enjoy the moment that you are living in. Feel the moments and enjoy that place by your own self, because you are the only one enjoying and feeling that moment.

We are killing ourselves just to fit in and gain attention.

On the other hand, it could be you or me who's suffering through financial or any other problem and feeling bad about yourself, and every time you look at their story and be like, I wish that I can have that lifestyle too.

This networking allows us to leave real life interactions with people and stay in touch with them through our device. Even if you live in the same house, you text someone to do that for you.

If you don't change your mindset and behavior about social media sites and spend bulk of your time scrolling down each app, believe me you’re going to be the same person as you are now.

“Give up Social Media to live your Real Life”

Now the solutions to this problem are fairly simple. All you need to do is smash your phone. No, just kidding, don't do that.

Try spending your week without social network and compare it when using and browsing the apps. Believe me, you'll save a lot of your time without this.

But the day you stop using this is the day you start living your own life. Removing social networks will give you more freedom because you will not think about others, you will think about yourself. Moreover, you will be controlled by your own joy and feelings, not others. It's going to change your life and make you completely different person.

If you really want to use it, so use this powerful tool to create great effect in the society. If others don't do, you go ahead and do that.

Start creating awareness in the society by showing people positive images and make someone motivates to do that.

Social networking is only useful for businesses and marketing purpose, as after pandemic, the world is becoming digital. So, you can also start your own business through network by providing people facilities or service.

 

Conclusion:

So, you shouldn't only rely on social network and start to believe the things that are shown to you on social media are real.

Find yourself that what you love to and go for it. Be unique. Start making more interactions with people in real life. Some disconnections will help you to connect and create more.

If you quit it, you're going to change yourself as you have more time to give yourself. I can't promise you, for overnight result. Stick to it to get it done.
