Our lives are influenced by social media; what we consume can have a positive or negative impact on us. With these guidelines, you can manage to avoid everything that bothers you, makes you uncomfortable, or even makes you insecure!
You'll now use social media in a constructive and motivating way!
Keep in mind that what you see on a screen does not reflect reality, and what matters most is how you live your REAL life.
clean up, stop following those accounts that you no longer identify with, that do not interest you or that do not contribute anything positive to you
start being aware of what kind of content you consume and if you need to make a change for the better
follow people who really inspire you and the message they give is positive for you
spend less time online, reduce your daily consumption
don't dedicate your time to online polemics
when you wake up do not check social networks, leave it for much later, when we wake up we need to absorb positive information for us not about other people's lives
set a daily time limit to check your media
don't compare yourself, an instagram picture does not reflect reality
before going to sleep, instead of using networks, read a book or journaling
create a safe space with content that inspires you, brings you something positive or you learn from it
use the internet for your learning and personal development
if something or someone bothers you don't think twice: block them
you can set a time limit to the social networks you used to frequent the most (this only if you are really distracted by them)
tart listening to podcasts of your interest while you are doing things (cooking, cleaning or even relaxing)
Remember that your time is valuable; don't waste it on things that won't benefit you in the long run.
With this post, I'm not suggesting that you stop using the internet; rather, I'm suggesting that it can become a problem for some people, and that we sometimes spend too much time on social media and neglect other aspects of our lives!
